ExxonMobil Mobile slated to triple production in the Permian.

They are cutting back on that way back.

They are cutting back on that way back.

Looks like some are holding back until oil prices are higher.

According to a report in Reuters two weeks ago:

The exception is Exxon Mobil, which plans a large increase in production. The largest U.S. oil company intends to more than triple its production in the Permian, the top U.S. shale field, and pump 1.3 million barrels per day from its lucrative operations in Guyana by 2030.
"We expect most oil and gas producers to remain disciplined with capital expenditures," said Rob Thummel, senior portfolio manager at Tortoise Capital. "However, less regulation will make it easier to increase drilling activity if commodity prices reach levels that are too high."

they will drill when it is economically viable to do so, that has always been the case.

Not according to Trump.

As to ANWR, when you compare ANWR to the state of Alaska, it is like a postage stamp on a football field. ANWR is tiny but full of oil.

So..............When?

Yes but there's more to it than what you're trying to imply.

Biden banned drilling, now it's up to the oil companies when and where they drill. It's called freedom.

And (see the Exxon Valdez) will the oil companies be liable for the cost to clean up the oil they spill?
We;ve seen it too many times, where they do billions of dollars worth of damage to the environment, and pay just millions, with the federal government (taxpayers) paying the bulk of the cleanup costs.

If they're gonna drill-baby-drill, they need to clean up after themselves.

 

[postman]

yes, eggs are up in price. Do you have any idea why?

I know that Trump promised to bring the prices down on day one.
But they're just going higher and higher.

Trump 2.0: National Energy Emergency Targets Fossil Fuel, Uranium and Critical Minerals Expansion and Infrastructure Overhaul​

Critical minerals and the US
The US Geological Survey publishes a list of critical minerals.
The US is highly dependent on foreign countries for critical minerals, especially China.
China is the main hub for processing critical minerals, including lithium, cobalt, graphite, and rare earths.

And you can now add hoarding to the reasons why.

I guess eggs are the new toilet paper, though they are somewhat more perishable.

Where are our cheaper eggs, republicans?

NOT a political issue. Bird Flu is infecting huge flocks of birds and once that is detected from a flock the whole flock is destroyed
I do not know the exact total figures but last quarter alone 20 million were destroyed.

Maybe Trump will claim that the bird flu, like COVID would go away by itself by Easter, when the weather got warmer.

 

[Stann]

Well, it worked for republicans.

Lies usually do. They hate the truth.

We own Zelensky.

Ukraine is rich in critical minerals such as lithium, titanium and other rare earth elements, which are crucial for manufacturing a broad range of modern products including electric car batteries and motors, as well as wind turbines.
________________
Reacting to Mr. Trump’s statement, a top Ukrainian official said Monday night that Ukraine is ready to work with the U.S. on mineral deals, provided the U.S. offers sufficient security guarantees to prevent these resources from falling into Russian hands. He spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter.

Ukrainian authorities say the country holds deposits of more than 20 critical minerals, with some consulting and equity firms valuing them at several trillion dollars. But experts caution that the true value is hard to estimate as many reserves remain inaccessible, in part because of the Russian occupation of parts of Ukraine.

Trump Urges Trading Ukraine’s Critical Minerals for More U.S. Aid

Ukraine has already emphasized that by supporting its war effort, the U.S. could get access to the country’s wealth of critical minerals like lithium and uranium.
