STATE OF AMERICAN ENERGY 2020: AMERICA EMBRACES GLOBAL The state of American energy in 2020 is one of global leadership, according to American Petroleum Institute president and CEO Mike Sommers. In the past decade, the oil and natural gas industry has revolutionized the global energy markets and now leads the world in energy development, carbon emissions reductions, and environmental

performance.

U.S. BREAKS RECORDS TO BECOME GLOBAL LEADER IN OIL AND The U.S. energy revolution that’s taken place since 2000 catapulted the country to become the global leader in petroleum, including oil, and natural gas production in 2018, according to a recent report from the Energy Information Administration: “Last year’s increase in the United States was one of the largest absolute petroleum and natural gas production increases from a single country THE HIGH COST OF THE GREEN NEW DEAL FOR PUBLIC HOUSING The Green New Deal for Public Housing recently introduced in the Senate completely shut residential natural gas use out of consideration in new public housing standards.

Prolific oil and natural gas production – particularly in Eddy and Lea counties that sit atop the Permian Basin – is driving a record-breaking revenue year for New Mexico, according to a recent New Mexico Legislative Finance Committee report.

GASLAND DEBUNKED

The New York Times. Gasland incorrectly attributes several cases of water well contamination in Colorado to oil and gas development when our investigations determined that the wells in question contained biogenic methane that is not attributable to such development. Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. 1. 2. STATE OF AMERICAN ENERGY 2020: AMERICA EMBRACES GLOBAL The state of American energy in 2020 is one of global leadership, according to American Petroleum Institute president and CEO Mike Sommers. In the past decade, the oil and natural gas industry has revolutionized the global energy markets and now leads the world in energy development, carbon emissions reductions, and environmental

performance.

EIA: NATURAL GAS IS THE AFFORDABLE OPTION FOR WINTER As the country begins to hunker down for the winter and an expected COVID-19 caseload spike, government data shows that natural gas is overwhelmingly the most affordable fuel for home heating. The report from the Energy Information Administration is a sharp rebuttal to the

MYTH BUSTING: ‘ZERO EMISSIONS’ EVS ACTUALLY RUN ON NATURAL GAS The Institute found that an EV charged by a natural gas-powered plant is equivalent driving a car that gets 58 miles per gallon, double the national average. Depending upon the energy source, this number varies – as renewables performed better than fossil fuel sources, of

course.

REPORT: NATURAL GAS PLAYED CRITICAL ROLE IN REDUCING U.S The shift to abundant, affordable natural gas over the past 15 years has played a critical role in helping to reduce U.S. power sector CO2 emissions more quickly than projected, according to a new report from Berkeley Labs, which found that natural gas contributed to 48 percent of that decline. “Natural gas generation grew from 761 billion kWh in 2005 to 1,617 billion kWh in 2020. WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT NATURAL GAS BANS There’s a worrying trend gaining traction in California, the Boston suburbs, and a few other liberal enclaves across the country.In the name of meeting ambitious decarbonization and emissions goals, a few dozen cities are considering – or have passed – ordinances that look to limit or outright ban natural gas in construction.. But the bans are meeting resistance. LATEST ORPHAN WELL REPORT OVERESTIMATES NUMBER OF WELLS Reuters cites a 2019 Government Accountability Office report estimating that the cost to for reclamation (plugging wells) on federal lands ranged from $20,000 to $145,000. IOGCC’s survey found that the average cost per well for those plugged in 2018 ranged from $3,700 to $97,626, putting the overall average at $18,940.

FEDERAL LANDS

Oil and Gas Development on Federal Lands Provides Key Revenues. The development of oil and gas resources on federal lands across the United States is a vital source of revenue for the federal government and the states themselves, providing funding to support education, infrastructure, and other essential government services. THE MYTH OF THE “JUST TRANSITION” For fringe Democrats seeking to completely ban responsible oil and natural gas development in the United States, the most popular phrase of the 2020 campaign has been the “Just Transition.” The purported idea of the plan is to transition workers in the fossil fuel industry IEA ON ENERGY TRANSITION: NATURAL GAS IS PART OF THE SOLUTION Fatih Birol, director of the International Energy Agency, recently presented the organization’s key priorities and special projects for 2021. Unsurprisingly, energy transition dominated the IEA’s agenda, especially as the agency steps into a more prominent role amid the highly anticipated United Nations Climate Change Conference, also known COP26 at the end of the year. NO, IEA DIDN’T CALL FOR AN END TO OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT The International Energy Agency’s new roadmap to a zero-carbon world lays out a potential path for the energy transition with suggestions – some more realistic than others – for how the planet could drastically reduce emissions and bring access to affordable, reliable energy to everyone.Although many media latched onto the notion that the report represents a definitive path forward for LATEST ORPHAN WELL REPORT OVERESTIMATES NUMBER OF WELLS Reuters cites a 2019 Government Accountability Office report estimating that the cost to for reclamation (plugging wells) on federal lands ranged from $20,000 to $145,000.

CIVIL RIGHTS LEADERS DOUBLE DOWN ON NATURAL GAS Civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson is working with local officials and Nicor Gas to bring a natural gas line to Pembroke Township – one of the most impoverished suburbs of Chicago. The community has a median income of $16,000 per year and primarily relies on propane heat and woodburning stoves to heat their homes during the winter. A NATURAL GAS TALE OF TWO STATES: PENNSYLVANIA V. NEW YORK A Natural Gas Tale of Two States: Pennsylvania v. New York. While Pennsylvanians continue to prosper thanks to growing natural gas production, their neighbors to the north in New York are meeting a much different fate, despite shared access to the Marcellus Shale. In the midst of the Great Recession, Pennsylvania experienced job and

wage growth

U.S. BREAKS RECORDS TO BECOME GLOBAL LEADER IN OIL AND The U.S. energy revolution that’s taken place since 2000 catapulted the country to become the global leader in petroleum, including oil, and natural gas production in 2018, according to a recent report from the Energy Information Administration: “Last year’s increase in the United States was one of the largest absolute petroleum and natural gas production increases from a single country
