Good evening Mike. I wholeheartedly agree. This may be a utopian perspective but matching production to industrial/commercial needs within the USA would have been a great objective. Use the molecules here for the value added benefits that we give away to other countries. Back in the day, that's what the TRRC did for the country and the industry and the mineral owner's benefit, in the long run. More recently, the export ban provided some regulating effect, taking into consideration our finished products exports. You described this mess so well as a shit show.

Good morning Mike. The fallout continues from poor performance by the RRC. Arbitrary and capricious. Consider the myriad posts discussing the tragedy that is the PB and it all points back to throwing off the reins of a near century old mandate to prevent waste in oil and gas operations. Sadly, there are no do-overs possible in the PB.
