This CLE webinar will provide an in-depth examination of the recent executive orders (EOs) issued by the Trump administration and their predicted impact on oil and gas development in 2025. The panel will offer a comprehensive analysis of the legal, regulatory, and practical implications of these orders as well as insights into the anticipated changes to permitting processes, environmental regulations, and the development of natural resources on federal lands and waters and in key regions such as Alaska.

Description

The Trump administration's recent EOs have introduced significant changes to the regulatory landscape for oil and gas development. These orders aim to streamline permitting processes, reduce regulatory burdens, and promote the development of domestic energy resources and especially domestic fossil fuel. Agencies directed to act under the EOs have begun and will continue to issue orders and directives to carry out the aims expressed in the EOs.

Environmental groups and other stakeholders are likely to challenge many of these changes, leading to litigation as well as regulatory and policy uncertainty that may take time to resolve.

Listen as our expert panel offers insights and practical guidance for attorneys working in this evolving regulatory environment. The panel will also discuss best practices for advising clients, navigating the new regulatory landscape, and preparing for potential future changes.
