Ukraine's gas transit halt intensifies Europe's energy crisis, while Biden's anticipated offshore drilling ban stirs controversy over long-term U.S. energy security. Meanwhile, New York's fracking ban, ignoring $1 trillion in reserves, faces criticism for stifling economic growth, and optimism grows in the oil market with 2025 predictions of rising prices fueled by geopolitical shifts and expanded natural gas pipeline capacity in Texas.
