拜登政府因限制北极石油、天然气钻探而受到批评

土地管理局正在限制北极新的石油和天然气租赁,并停止了一项用于工业采矿目的的道路提案。

继美国内政部对北极油气钻探实施新限制后,拜登政府的能源政策再次成为人们关注的焦点。

土地管理局 (BLM) 更新了阿拉斯加国家石油储备 (NPR-A) 的监管框架。该保护区由阿拉斯加 2300 万英亩的公共土地组成,从布鲁克斯山脉一直延伸到北极海岸。美国土地管理局将野生动物保护工作、气候变化和土著社区对其资源的持续依赖作为实施新限制的原因。

据能源劳动力和技术委员会称,NPR-A 预计蕴藏约 17 Bbbl 常规石油和 50 Tcf 天然气。

Biden Administration Criticized for Limits to Arctic Oil, Gas Drilling

The Bureau of Land Management is limiting new oil and gas leasing in the Arctic and also shut down a road proposal for industrial mining purposes.

The Biden Administration’s energy policies are in the spotlight again following the U.S. Department of the Interior’s new limits to oil and gas drilling in the Arctic.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) updated its regulatory framework for the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPR-A). The reserve consists of 23 million acres of public land in Alaska extending from the Brooks Range to the Arctic Coast. BLM cited wildlife protection efforts, climate change and indigenous communities’ continued reliance on its resources as reasons for the new restrictions.

The NPR-A is estimated to hold approximately 17 Bbbl of conventional oil and 50 Tcf of natural gas, according to the Energy Workforce and Technology Council.
