US Heads for Era of 'Energy Dominance'

摘要

US Deputy Secretary of Energy Dan Brouillette used last Week1S IP Week gathering in London to state the case for his country becoming a major exporter of energy, particularly LNG, over the coming years. Driven by the onshore boom in both shale gas and oil, the landscape for US energy has changed dramatically. "Today, the US is the number one combined oil and gas producer in the world," the Trump appointee said. And thanks to the US president's raft of "pro-innovation, pro- freedom" policies, as well as tax reforms and the halting of "draconian" oil and gas regulations, he said the US is "poised to become a net energy exporter within the next decade," resulting in a new era of energy dominance that will enhance the country's economic and national security.
