美国禁止北极钻探

美国联邦法院暂停北极国家野生动物保护区的工作,美国外交部准备新的钻探活动环境影响报告

普拉茨写道,一名美国联邦法官停止了在北极国家野生动物保护区(ANWR)沿海平原进行石油和天然气钻探所需的工作,维持拜登政府暂时停止该地区工作的决定。

内政部长黛布拉·哈兰德延长了 ANWR 准备工作的暂停时间,以便美国外交部有时间为租赁出售准备一份新的环境影响报告,该租赁出售将使 ANWR 能够进行石油和天然气开发。

阿拉斯加州开发金融公司对法院的裁决表示失望。 2021 年 1 月 19 日,该公司已在 ANWR 内签订了 7 个石油和天然气租赁合同,面积达 365,775 英亩(约 1500 平方公里)。

The US Banned Arctic Drilling

U.S. Federal Court Suspends Work in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, U.S. Department of Foreign Affairs Prepares New Report on Environmental Impact of Drilling Activities

A U.S. federal judge stopped the start of work needed for oil and gas drilling on the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), upholding the Biden administration’s temporary suspension of work in the area, Platts writes.

This pause in preparatory work at ANWR was extended by Secretary of the Interior Debra Haaland to give the US Department of Foreign Affairs time to prepare a new environmental impact report for the lease sale that would open ANWR to oil and gas development.

The Alaska State Development Finance Corporation expressed disappointment with the court’s decision. It has already entered into seven oil and gas leases for 365,775 acres (about 1.5 thousand km2) within the ANWR on January 19, 2021.
