Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Oil giants like ExxonMobil and Shell are back in Alaskas National Petroleum Reserve, spending $163 million on over a million acres, marking the largest lease sale in decades. This comes as the North Slope sees a revival with new discoveries and massive projects, backed by a pro-drilling Trump administration. While industry insiders see this as a game-changer, conservation groups are fighting back with lawsuits. Despite high costs and legal challenges, experts believe this signals Alaskas oil scene is far from over.
