No future? Texas oil industry faces challenging times
The #US #oil industry has just been through one of its toughest years ever. Following a trade war with #Russia and "SaudiArabia, the sector was hit hard by the #Covid-19 pandemic. In #Texas - America's top oil-producing state - the industry is slowly getting back on its feet just as a new challenge looms: the Biden administration's shift to green energy. Our correspondents went to the Permian Basin in West Texas to see what the future looks like for the US oil industry.

Keep driving that ‘21 GMC Yukon XL to the field to check emissions - the industry appreciates your support. We’ll look the other way considering your emissions.

Biden is begging Saudi Arabia to increase oil production currently
The issue here is it looks like the royalites paymens are going to the incorrect people And not the people who actually own the minimal rights
Maybe it is kinda scary that Russia and saudi Arabia can completely destroy your business. Sounds like you have a oil price dependency issue

We can't power our cars with sunshine or wind. We like being able get where we are going with cheap gas. Our economy runs on oil and we haven't figured out a good way to run it on anything else. I don't have kids do so I don't have to worry about a future that will be destroyed by climate change.
Mia got with lucas and it looks like me they might of switched the records or something and they nevergabe me the records they were soposto I have a recording of a colt Thompson saying that he took some cody down to the storage place and picked up records and it looks to me like the nabors across the street or something needed a phone line or something back about 20 years ago and so let them use the phone line as there were limited numbet of lines check in to if a cleak or something for some blind judge in Raytown or something switched the records and or if a judge forgot to log out of a computerus and the records got switched and or if instead of sending the records over they destroyed the records
