Plaudits

A decision by the Department of Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to set aside its original federal hydraulic fracturing (fracking) proposal has drawn plaudits from associations representing major oil and natural gas producers.

FERC’s proposed rule that would require interstate and certain major intrastate pipelines to post actual flows is not winning any plaudits from the pipeline sector, and even producers have asked the agency to scale back the scope of the proposed rule to limit the costs to pipelines, which would more than likely flow to shippers and producers.
