The USA is also the world's greatest exporter of LNG.
Qatar ships about 20% of the world's LNG (up until Iran's latest attack, which reduces Qatar's output by 20%... so now they will only ship 16% +/- of the world's LNG).
The USA ships 25% of the world's LNG.
Since we can't rely on natural gas forever... the USA is also investing in Nuclear Power, but is also developing Geothermal Power Plants.
Lots of prep being done to export LNG to EU. EU getting coupled to US energy as Russia re-routes to India/central Asia energy block. But Trump is going to deny energy to EU for a bit, and then make them beg. UK controls enough energy to be self-sufficient, but they will probably be initial tether to US energy while they untangle self-imposed energy production restrictions.
There will probably be a Canada-Greenland-Iceland-UK pipeline built at some point and this is why America needs cooperation from Canada and Greenland. Roads, Rails, and Tunnels often follow pipeline routes, so there will definitely be Greenland coupled to "mainland" via roads/tunnels, but there is high probability of Greenland-Iceland connector tunnel and reasonable chance of Iceland-UK transport connector in distant future. Pipelines, although made moot by nuclear buildout are good justification for transport route connectors in the near term, imo. (also a good permanent backup to nuclear).
General observations only: buildout ramped up in 2022 in several key areas, but big picture huge construction and infrastructure projects started in 2016 in several key locales and never stopped. For example 4x huge industrial complexes in NV and AZ started around 2015-16 are now together big enough to replace all of CA industry in 2026 with 2 getting their own nuclear plants. There appear to similar clusters elsewhere replacing IL, NY, and WA as if they are getting booted (or destroyed) along with CA. 1 in NV is a "new city" called McCarran, NV.
It is possible to build out infrastructure ahead of time, test it out, but then leave it "turned off" until a certain time. There was likely much of this going on at end of Trump 1.0 term.
Alaska is planning a 800 mile pipeline, from Fairbanks to Kenai. Natural gas (42”).
Alaska needs Trumps help. With Senator Rino Lisa Murkowski voted against him I hope he tells Alaska get rid of her and rank voting and he’ll help, if not no natural gas for you. Lisa Murkowski Facebook:
This is a great day for Alaska that further demonstrates the world-class energy potential across our North Slope. The delegation has focused on the NPR-A not only because it is a petroleum reserve—one of the most obvious places to produce energy anywhere in the nation—but also because we knew that industry’s interest in this area is remarkably strong. Our efforts to restore access, return to the rule of law, and get this program back on track have now been fully validated by these historic results. The best part is, the best is yet to come. From here, these leases will lead to new development and production, creating good jobs, generating even more revenues, and strengthening our energy security. I look forward to all of it and thank Secretary Burgum and his team for being excellent partners on behalf of Alaska.
"Alaska surge" has been able to start early with unseasonably warm early spring in NW US & Canada. Oil production with Alaska surge and Gulf of America surge is being targeted at 28M bpd by end of Summer 2026. This would be ~2x from 2025 (13M) and 4x from Biden low (7M). If CA and PA can be freed up via Executive authority, then US can come close to 58M bpd "full capacity" by 2028 (excluding additional source development). Critical threshold of 34M for all of North America/Western Hemisphere is target to justify North American Oil Exchange. Daily consumption of oil worldwide is around 100M bpd.
Infrastructure is being built to couple Japan directly to Alaska per deal just signed. This is mainly through ports and liquified natural gas terminals right now, but eventually there will likely be oil and gas pipelines directly to Northernmost Japan either directly across Aleutians or via Bering Strait tunnel route through Russia (or both).

It's natural!
Eric Swalwell enters the chat. 🚶♂️💨
So hopefully my gas heat bill, which doubled this year will go down. So proud of USA and our beloved POTUS!!
don't hold your breath
If our gas rates do go down, it won't be because they want to decrease them, that we know.😤
Does anyone have any details on how this happened?
Pretty positive it’s not possible to spin up that much production in one year.
That means this was either put in place during term 1 or under “Faux Biden”, but I don’t remember hearing about it?

Trump post this on TS - https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/116278899551484414
USA now produces more oil than Saudi Arabia and Russia!
https://greatawakening.win/p/1ASYyzZQCn/usa-now-produces-more-oil-than-s/c/
We can thank Chris Christie for about 35% of that.
I mean Gov Pritzker alone accounts for at least 20% of that
Yeah, but we have Swalwell. They don't.
