Can federal officials shut down wells and bring it under federal control? Can they use federal contractors to pump oil and transport it to strategic petroleum storage?
I believe it is a hard fact that locations and news blackouts surrounding strategic petroleum reserve activities is the norm for reasons of national security. The only news I believe the public is allowed to hear is when the federal government puts strategic reserves up for sale.
I have been inside the Strategic Petroleum Reserve Bryan Mound facility for work.
I do not agree this could be in any way related to SPR. Anyone thinking or claiming the SPR includes production fields doesn't understand their operation, purpose and how they function.
