In this month’s news roundup, we analyze how Winter Storm Ferne disrupted nearly 2 million barrels per day of U.S. oil production and sent natural gas prices to all-time highs, with spot prices hitting over $30 per million BTUs. We explore what these dramatic price spikes mean for your royalty checks and why this recovery looks different from the 2021 Texas grid crisis. We also examine the Trump administration’s push to streamline oil and gas permitting on federal forest lands, Greenland’s emerging role as a strategic mineral hub, and as always, we wrap up with a discussion on the latest U.S. land drilling rig statistics.
