U.S. crude oil production hit a new monthly record in May 2025, averaging 13.488 million barrels per day (bpd), according to new EIA data released Thursday.

The biggest contributor remains Texas, which churned out 5.752 million bpd, up from 5.751 million bpd in April. New Mexico, home to part of the prolific Permian Basin, saw production tick up to 2.199 million bpd, a marginal 0.1% month-on-month rise but a robust 8.9% jump compared…

The Trump administration has taken the decision to reinstate Chevron’s licence to operate in Venezuela, marking a decisive and long-overdue shift in its Venezuela policy. The decision, which will see Chevron resume operations in the world’s largest proven oil reserves after being barred in May 2025, is more than an economic arrangement.

Geothermal energy is poised for a breakthrough in the United States. One of the vanishingly few clean energy forms that made it through the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill unscathed, the time is right for the carbon-free energy source to take center stage. With a positive policy environment and rapid advancements in technology, there’s only one critical hurdle in geothermal energy’s way – an exceedingly shallow talent pool. The geothermal revolution will need a whole lot of geologists – but a huge number…

There are signs that western measures and a domestic crackdown on Kyrgyzstan’s traditional banking sector are starting to bite, hindering Russian efforts to evade sanctions. Yet, booming transactions of a Kyrgyzstan-registered, ruble-linked cryptocurrency on a Kyrgyz exchange this spring indicate that sanctions-busters are still very active in the Central Asian nation.
