Shell has neither sold nor advanced some of its most promising North Slope oil leases toward production in any meaningful way in over a decade.
Early in the morning following his Nov. 2018 Election Day victory, then-Gov.-elect Mike Dunleavy took the stage at a breakfast put on by the Alaska Miners Association during the trade group’s annual convention. It wasn’t something he had to do, especially on a couple hours of sleep . There would be plenty of time to tout his grand vision for our state in the coming days and weeks.
For instance, Shell has held highly prospective state leases on the North Slope since 2012 while doing little to nothing to actually explore and work toward the development of the potential oil resources.
Gov. Dunleavy often espouses that the Alaska Constitution mandates the development of the state’s resources to meet important state funding requirements, like education, and DNR is the agency tasked with carrying out that mandate in the public’s interest.
