oil and gas this week podcast brought to you by api this is the show for busy oil pros who want. Who want to quickly keep their finger on the pulse of the industry. Thanks for joining us for actually episode 330. It's old habits die hard, don't they? They really do. And before we get to everything, including the reviews, really quick. Speaking of reviews, quickest ways go in the show, it's click on the link, love the podcast.com, for it slash OGTW. Our reviews are starting to come back in. Thank you, everybody. Really appreciate that. Then, if you haven't checked out OGGN lately, go check it out not just for the cool merch and the advertising options, but we've now started a blog. I've done a couple of posts up there, and we have contributing author James Asbury, stirring up a little more cello's controversies. Go dig into that. A lot of ways to stay in touch with the reality of what's going on in the oil and gas industry, including the shell plays. Then, our last episode, I asked everybody to fill out the one question survey. Literally takes about 20 seconds. And in return, we'll send you a laptop, a hard hat sticker. And thank you. My inbox blew up after that. But we need it, right? Once again, the link is in the show notes. If you can go in and answer the one question survey, we will continue to send you stickers, OGN stickers. Lander, you'll be getting those out in a couple of weeks. So if you already submitted a question, just give us time. We'll wait until we have a whole bunch of them so we can mail them all at the same time. Reviews. Want to read the review? I love this one. Two stars from John John Smith Smith. Okay. Maybe more opinion than news. Somewhat bias. Sure, oil and gas is king, but we need a planet to live on.

I guess I'm supposed to have different views from you, Mark, because if I don't, I lack critical thinking.

Yeah, I suspect John John Smith, that your critical thinking should have applied to your login name.

The other thing is you do realize oil and gas or hydrocarbons are natural and made

by the planet that we all want to live on. Hopefully you realize that, John, John. But anyway,

appreciate the review. I love this sort of stuff. Page gets a kick out of the lower store reviews.

They're actually my favorite. I always love hearing from our listeners. Whether you agree with us or not,

thank you for listening. Ready to get the news stories? Yeah, since I'm the co-host. You're not going to let that one die, are you? You're the main host. Actually, that should be my title from here on out. All right. First one up is surging American exports keep oil and gas prices in check.

Yeah.

Enjoy the low prices at the pump people. It will go up this year, unfortunately.

But one of the things that's keeping it down is the U.S. kicking button taking names.

We've reached over 13 million barrels per day breaking all kinds of records here in the U.S.

in productions.

A lot of our production, I have been exported, especially to Europe.

So we're loosening that chokehold that Russia's had on Europe forever.

We're just about hit deep in the middle of winter,
