Happy Tuesday! It’s been a lovely day so far in the city!
Did anyone
happen to read the Oil & Gas Journal’s OGJ Daily Update Newsletter on
April 21, 2025, their article titled, “US BOEM begins process to replace current
OCS lease sale plan”? In the article, it
speaks on the U.S. Department of Interior’s Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s (BOEM) who has set into motion the 11th
National OSC Program to swap with the existing 10th OSC Program which
only has 3 BOEM oil and gas lease sales between 2025 to 2029 which were
only for leases in the Gulf of America (Mexico). Last week the BOEM was
instructed from the Secretary of the Department of Interior, Doug Burgum, to begin
creating the 11th National OSC Program and to add the 27h OSC field which
is in the High Artic off the coast of Alaska.
The next step for the BOEM is to issue in the Federal Register a
45-day public comment phase for the 11th National OSC Program where
one may suggest areas and introduce issues for areas recommended. In addition, the BOEM will issue in
the Federal Register information on the new area in the High Artic field off
the coast of Alaska, too. Lastly, BOEM was instructed to progress
the 2025 oil and gas lease sale by publishing its notice June 2025. Well, it appears we have much to look for in
the Federal Register in the coming weeks and months! We will let you know, if we hear anything
else! If you would like to read more of
