Trump taps California offshore oil to blunt Iran-war price shocks

TL;DR Summary
President Trump uses the Defense Production Act to speed restart of California offshore oil production via Sable Offshore Corp., aiming to ease price shocks from the Iran war; projected output is about 45,000–60,000 barrels per day, a tiny share of the global impact from Strait of Hormuz closures, but the move draws criticism from California officials and environmentalists.
