The United States is witnessing a surge in energy production, with crude oil output at an all-time high, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said in a Nov. 3 interview with Fox News.
Countries in the Middle East are “so thrilled to have the United States back in the game of energy abundance and energy growth as opposed to following some European model of trying to shut down all the traditional forms of energy. And under President [Donald] Trump, he said, ‘Drill, baby, drill.’ In July, the United States set a record for oil production, 13.6 million barrels a day. There’ll be new records set going forward,” Burgum said.
