Trump signs order to establish council for boosting U.S. oil, gas production

Washington, Feb 15 (UNI) U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday on establishing a new council to boost U.S. production and export of fossil fuels.
Tasked with driving up U.S. domestic oil and gas production, partly for export, the National Energy Dominance Council will be chaired by Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum.
As Trump was signing the executive order inside the Oval Office, Burgum said he signed a license earlier in the day, which would allow the Commonwealth LNG in the U.S. state of Louisiana to export liquified natural gas (LNG), marking the first LNG export approval after former President Joe Biden paused the approvals in early 2024.
