借着医疗改革方案在国会放行的东风,美国总统奥巴马又马不停蹄地推出了取消美国部分近海石油和天然气开采的禁令(下称近海油气新政),从而正式启动了尘封近30多年的本国近海油气资源勘探开发的厚重大门。虽然奥巴马的这一创新之举带有明显的自我政治诉求,但却鲜明地反映了美国公共能源政策和能源战略的调整与转向。 By means of the health care reform, the U.S. government released a ban on offshore oil and gas exploitation in the United States (the “Offshore Oil and Gas Deal”), officially launching the offshore oil and gas resources that have sealed the country for nearly 30 years Prospect of exploration and development. Although this initiative of Obama with obvious self-political demands, it clearly reflects the adjustment and turning point of the U.S. public energy policy and energy strategy.
