Sable Offshore Restarts California Oil Flow Under DPA, Sparks Legal Clash
TL;DR Summary
Oil resumed flowing through Santa Barbara’s offshore pipeline network after President Trump invoked the Defense Production Act to override California regulators, triggering legal actions from state authorities who demand the line be removed from parks. Sable says the restart boosts national security and domestic supply (about 17%), with two more rigs to come online by June and production targeted at 50,000 barrels per day by April 1. California agencies reiterate they will pursue further action amid ongoing lawsuits and environmental concerns.
