What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The U.S. Geological Survey announced a new estimate for natural gas potential in Alaska’s North Slope. The agency stated the region might store about 96 trillion cubic feet of technically recoverable natural gas. This estimate is roughly three times the size of known gas accumulations, while proven gas reserves found by drilling are estimated at roughly 35 trillion cubic feet.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The oil and gas industry is a major component of Alaska’s economy. The North Slope accounts for approximately 97% of Alaska’s oil production. The new estimate, which accounts for developments like Willow and Pikka, supports the potential for increased energy production in the region.
