In this episode we explore the rapidly evolving energy landscape in the United States and how it is disrupting the traditional dominance of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). From the boom in shale oil and gas production to the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the podcast delves into the key drivers behind this shift and what it means for America's energy independence and the global oil market. And do the countries the US has targeted this century ( Iraq, Iran, Venezuela, Libya and Russia) have something in common? 
Join Rob and Ruairi as they talk about the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for America's energy future. Get ready for a thought-provoking and insightful discussion on the future of energy and America's role in shaping it.
