That is about $600 million a day. A nice bonus for the US oil companies so they have plenty of money to drill, baby, drill. Plus build pipelines.
As of April 30, 2026, President Trump has signed an order authorizing the Bridger Pipeline project to transport Canadian crude oil from the U.S.-Canada border to Wyoming.
Key Details of the ApprovalProject: Bridger Pipeline (Canada-to-US crude oil project).
Other Recent Pipeline NewsWhile the Bridger Pipeline approval is the major news today, other projects have been in the headlines recently:Enbridge Sunrise Expansion: A $4 billion natural gas pipeline expansion in British Columbia was approved by the federal government on April 24, 2026.Mountain Valley Pipeline (Southgate project): This project is moving forward in Virginia after a court decision earlier this week allowed it to restart construction.
The UAE is going to have some difficulty increasing their exports as long as the Strait remains closed. They have a pipeline that goes to their east coast, but the capacity of that pipeline is limited. Even between both the UAE's and SA's pipelines, they have contributed only a small portion of what previously flowed through the Strait. But at least it is something. US oil industry is the big winner here; but not the American people who are stuck paying higher fuel prices and will shortly start paying higher prices for goods.
If the oil companies are making such nice profits now, why don't they lower the price of gas & diesel for US citizens?
Give me $2 gas back
Yeah, good for them. While the rest of us pay 4 dollars a gallon for regular.

I know it's not Trump's fault, but I just filled up on regular and it was damn near $90.00.
And that's just my Tahoe... She was thirsty.
