The Department of the Interior’s recent lease sales sent a clear message: domestic energy development is moving at full speed. In March, the Gulf of America offshore lease sale and the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPR-A) sale set historic records, indicating economic growth will continue to be driven by strong domestic energy production.
The Department of the Interior (DOI) announced last week a long-awaited offshore leasing schedule that includes Alaska’s Cook Inlet and the Gulf Coast.
