It's not the drilling that's the issue, it's the refining. The prices of crude isn't so high on the market itself, but the post-refined products themselves. American refineries are at capacity and have been for at least a decade now, yet they aren't doing anything to increase production.
And as for Canada, we don't have much when it comes to refining capacity in the first place.
no drilling is the issue lol. Shale wells deplete crazy fast. The decline rate is 70% in the first 3 years. We are reaching peak production. If you reduce the number of operators through buyouts it's only going to make it impossible to crank out new production quickly.
