Newly elected President of the United States of America Donald Trump, saying that President Joe Biden's decision on the defense can be affected on the upcoming development of oil and gas off the coastal waters of the States.
This is reported by RBC-Ukraine via CNN.
What was blowing
The honorable US President Joe Biden has blocked the development of oil resources in an unimportant term more gas Nizh 625 million acres of coastal waters. The reason for such a defense is that drilling is simply “not really risky” and “not necessary” to meet the energy needs of the state.
The fence was established on the basis of federal law, which gives US presidents the right to demarcate territories for oil production without the possibility of interfering with such decisions. This mechanism was put in place by the presidents of both parties to protect coral reefs and marine ecosystems.
Currently, the central and western parts of the Mexican inlet, which will provide 14% of the national oil production gas, new licenses for development are still possible.
Trump's reaction
At the same time, Trump said that he would try to counter Biden's decision about a permanent ban on the future development of oil and gas on the shelf in many parts of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
“I just learned that Biden has blocked oil and gas drilling on 625 million acres of coastal US territory. Look, it’s just ridiculous. I’m definitely going to end this fence,” Trump said.
Oil and gas production USA
The oil and gas industry is a key sector of the US energy sector and an important driver of economic growth. The main regions of the region are Texas, Northern Dakota, New Mexico and the federal territories of the Mexican Inlet. With the development of technology, including hydraulic fracturing (fracking), the United States has become one of the largest producers of oil and natural gas in the world.
The US federal government regulates the production of oil and gas on state lands and shelves through licensing and control over compliance with environmental standards. However, the nutrition of the development of new births is often the subject of political criticism. The administrations of various presidents have taken different approaches to this food: some of them are expanding access to new territories for video production, while others, for example, are limiting drilling for protection Dovkilla.
The remaining fates mean respect for the change in concentration from the fire pit and the transition to new energy sources. Protein naphtha and gas are being deprived of important elements of US energy policy, especially in the context of the country’s energy independence and energy exports.
