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).
