Dec 17, 2024 IPAA Responds to Department of Energy LNG Export Study
WASHINGTON — Today the Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA) President & CEO Jeff Eshelman issued the following statement in response to the Department of Energy’s updated report on Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) exports:
“U.S. LNG exports have reduced our trade deficit, helped our allies counter Russian aggression, and provided good paying jobs to hundreds of thousands of American workers. This thumb-on-the-scale “study” was an election year giveaway to Keep It In the Ground activists, and a thinly veiled attempt to give them a legal tool to sue American industry in the future. We hope the Trump administration will put this disastrous ‘pause’ behind us and allow Americans to get back to work.”
