API - American Petroleum Institute’s Post

U.S. LNG exports deliver vital energy to our allies in Europe and Asia and support thousands of jobs here in America. What’s needed from Washington are smart policies - not restrictions - to help support global energy security.

We need a new President

Blatant lie and I understand that’s harsh. 1. Doesn’t affect current LNG exports. Nada. 2. Doesn’t affect LNG facilities under construction. Nada. 3. Doesn’t affect permits in for review. 4. Places a moratorium for a few months on new permit allocations while the environmental impacts are studied. Gives my industry an awesome opportunity to educate the world. We are all environmentalists- we want clean air and water, that’s a given. Academics, scientists, industry personnel and politicians can band together to explain how Marcellus natural gas is perhaps the greenest energy source on the planet. Recycled produced water. Green drilling and completion practices significantly reducing methane emissions. Electric drilling rigs and frac crews and these are just a few examples. Don’t fight environmentalists, explain, for example how a pipeline of natural gas would significantly reduce New England carbon footprint while saving hard working families on energy cost. Significant savings. Greener and cheaper. Wow. Or as always, lie about the situation and stick your head in the sand. Written from a 35 year oil/gas veteran but someone capable of reading and understanding. Stephanie, ever supervised a cement or frac job? Didn’t think so. Think before writing these posts. The natural gas industry has a compelling story that doesn’t need to be hidden behind lies. Honest, truthful, fact based dialogue will work.

Energy continues to be a major geopolitical football. Restricting Russian exports of LNG ought to lead to higher prices than otherwise and increase profits for Australian producers. Are consumers prepared to continue paying for geopolitical trade wars? https://lnkd.in/gY9qbEgW

Energy security is a top geopolitical issue. Reducing foreign dependence on oil by increasing local supply shields Californians from global price shifts caused by events in foreign countries. #EnergyIndependence Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gp4fBGy4

The War on American Oil - President Joe Biden’s reckless “War on US Oil” has seriously undercut national security. The US Energy Information Agency has reported the supply of emergency oil in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at just 351 million barrels — about half its capacity.Biden’s done everything possible to halt domestic oil production to please the Green extreme. The Biden Green policies have driven pump prices far above the level when he took office.In the meantime, the Israeli-Hamas conflict could threaten oil production in the Middle East while Russian oil remains banned as its war in Ukraine rages on.Thanks to the radical “Green agenda,” Americans may soon face an energy crisis like none before. https://lnkd.in/ekVk2qYu

The United States is the world leader in oil and natural gas production, which provides economic stability and geopolitical leverage. We should never again be left in a position where foreign nations can use energy as an economic weapon against us.

Fuelling tension: Middle East conflicts impact on clean energy: With the oil and gold price volatility underscoring the fragile balance of global energy markets and geopolitics, the events are setting the stage for broader economic and energy uncertainties. #hydrogen #HydrogenNow #H2View

If the Houthis persist in their attacks on commercial shipments through the Red Sea Canal, it could have far-reaching consequences. The Red Sea Canal is a crucial waterway for global trade, especially for the transportation of oil and gas. Any disruption in the flow of these resources can directly impact the prices of gas and fuel worldwide. As we've seen in the past, geopolitical tensions and conflicts in key regions can lead to increased market volatility. The uncertainty caused by such attacks can trigger a chain reaction in the energy market, affecting supply chains and potentially leading to a spike in gas and fuel prices. This, in turn, puts a strain on the economies of various nations and could have severe implications for the livelihoods of people around the world. It's a stark reminder of how interconnected our global systems are and how the consequences of regional conflicts can have a ripple effect on the daily lives of individuals worldwide. In such situations, international cooperation and diplomatic efforts become essential to find peaceful resolutions and ensure the stability of vital trade routes.

A coalition of congressional Democrats, business leaders, and Republicans, along with international allies, are urging President Joe Biden to reconsider his decision to pause liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. They argue that this move undermines his climate agenda, jeopardizes national security, empowers Russia and Iran, and creates a rift with allies dependent on clean energy from the U.S. to power their countries. https://lnkd.in/e7G3-gUy
