特朗普政府正加紧推进加州的石油开采,以推翻该州远离化石燃料的既定政策方向。1政府宣布计划在加州和佛罗里达启动新的海上石油租赁,其中佛罗里达自1995年以来未曾允许海上钻探。1此外,政府正协助一家德州公司重启2015年管道泄漏事故后停运的管道系统,并推进海上钻井项目。1
商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克于5月宣布对加州沿岸管理计划进行联邦审查。1卢特尼克声称,"以环境极端主义名义延迟关键国家基础设施的阻挠政策是不可接受的"。1环保人士担忧这项审查可能削弱成立于1972年的加州沿岸委员会在涉及联邦机构项目中的权力,该委员会在过去30多年来一直在海岸发展中发挥重要作用。1
钻井公司DCOR的平台项目计划将日产油量从1100桶增加至4000桶。12015年的管道泄漏事故曾导致加州最严重的石油泄漏之一,污染了从圣芭芭拉到洛杉矶长达150英里(240公里)的海滩。1这些举措与加州能源政策形成对比——加州2024年近一半的电力来自可再生能源。1
The Trump administration is intensifying efforts to boost oil extraction in California, directly challenging the state's transition away from fossil fuels.1 The administration announced plans to initiate new offshore oil leasing in both California and Florida, with Florida marking its first such leases since 1995.1 The initiative also includes assisting a Texas company in restarting a pipeline system that has remained inactive since a catastrophic 2015 spill, as well as advancing offshore drilling projects.1
Central to the administration's strategy is a federal review of California's coastal management plan, initiated by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik in May.1 Environmental advocates worry this review could undermine the California Coastal Commission's authority over projects involving federal agencies.1 Lutnik stated that "obstructionist policies delaying critical national infrastructure under the guise of environmental extremism are unacceptable."1 The Coastal Commission, established in 1972, has played a substantial role in shaping coastal development for over three decades.1
The administration's energy agenda includes specific expansion targets for existing operations. One drilling platform operated by DCOR is expected to increase its daily production from 1,100 barrels to 4,000 barrels.1 This acceleration comes as California already derives nearly half of its electricity from renewable energy sources as of 2024.1 The 2015 pipeline rupture, one of California's worst oil spills, blackened approximately 150 miles of beaches between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles, underscoring the environmental risks associated with expanded offshore drilling.1
