U.S. Considers Exporting More Oil for First Time Since ’70s
The U.S. oil boom is moving Congress closer than it has been in more than three decades to easing the ban on exporting crude imposed after the Arab embargo.
Advances such as hydraulic fracturing are leading to record production that may outstrip refinery capacity within 18 months to three years, said Benjamin Salisbury, a senior energy policy analyst at FBR Capital Markets Corp. in Arlington, Virginia. Net petroleum imports now account for about 40 percent of demand, down from 60 percent in 2005, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, ...

Top White House adviser: Meaningful climate action coming soon
Steam and smoke rise from a coal burning power plant in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. (AP Photo/Martin Meissner, File)While the Obama administration won’t put its weight behind a carbon tax, it is preparing to “take meaningful action” to prevent a warming planet, the top White House energy adviser said Wednesday.
Heather Zichal, the deputy assistant to the president for energy and climate change, said tackling the issue will be a top priority during President Barack Obama’s second term.
Obama knows this is a “legacy” issue and is “serious” about making climate change action “a second-term priority,” Zichal said at a forum organized by The New Republican. “We are poised to take meaningful action.”
Economist: Climate change a financial threat to oil companies
Zichal’s comments come as rumors swirl in Washington, D.C. about a possible administrative package of climate change policies to be unveiled as early as next month. That would make good on Obama’s state-of-the-union pledge to address the issue using his executive powers and through federal agencies if Congress fails to act.
Although Zichal didn’t outline specifics Wednesday, one big contender is a proposal to limit greenhouse gas emissions from existing power plants. The EPA already has proposed rules for new power plants, an initiative that has blunted utilities’ interest in constructing new coal-fired facilities. But that measure does nothing about existing power plants, some built decades ago, which account for roughly 40 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.
Environmentalists have said clamping down on emissions from existing power plants is one of the biggest steps Obama could take to tackle climate change. And the Obama administration has already committed to eventually taking the step, as part of a legal settlement in 2010 of a lawsuit brought by environmentalists.
But the move almost certainly would touch off an ugly battle with Congress, power utilities and coal supporters.
IEA: Energy sector source of 2/3 of greenhouse gas release
While controversial, that approach would avoid an even more contentious idea: a carbon tax embedded into the price of goods and services.
“The president has not proposed and does not intend to propose a carbon tax,” Zichal said. Instead, “as a whole, the president is very focused on implementing common-sense policies to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions.”
Zichal emphasized that the White House has a number of “important tools that we are prepared to deploy.”
Beyond EPA action on greenhouse gas emissions, she cited Interior Department permitting of renewable energy projects on public lands and fuel economy standards.

AFP PHOTO ROBERT FRANCOIS (Photo credit should read ROBERT FRANCOIS/AFP/Getty Images)COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Danish shipping and oil group A.P. Moller-Maersk says the world’s three biggest shipping container operators have entered an alliance to reduce fuel consumption and improve service and operations.
Vincent Clerc of the Copenhagen-based company’s shipping unit says MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. and CMA CGM of France will form the P3 alliance with Maersk Line.
Clerc said Tuesday that it will mean “even more efficient and competitive” operations.
The alliance will be an independently operated network with 255 vessels and is to start operations next year, depending on regulatory approvals. Maersk stressed the companies will continue to have fully independent sales, marketing and customer service functions.
The P3 alliance will operate a capacity of 2.6 million containers between Asia and Europe, across the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.
