About this episode
In this episode of the Energy Newsbeat Daily Standup, Stuart Turley and Michael Tanner discuss President Trump's potential to take control of California’s oil refineries to prevent a national security crisis amid closures threatening 17% of the state’s refining capacity. They explore the political fallout and the need for increased Alaskan oil production, followed by the opening of the first U.S. rare earth mine in 70 years. They also critique Europe's energy policy, including its costly shift away from Russian gas. The hosts provide insights on U.S. oil and gas market trends, including rising oil prices, declining rig counts, and the global impact of sanctions on Russia.
