The Gulf of America Oil and Gas Final Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement is available. This Final PEIS will support decisions on future offshore energy activities and help streamline approvals for American energy production. Details:

Our Gulf’s share of offshore revenue increases to $650M/year. That means more funding for coastal restoration and local jobs, which means a stronger energy future for all.

BOEM is reducing permitting timelines from years to 28 days using new emergency procedures.

Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, we are launching a historic offshore leasing schedule with 30 lease sales in the Gulf through 2040 and 6 in Alaska through 2032. First up: BBG1 on Dec. 10th.

At #IADC2025, BOEM Acting Regional Director Robbins shared how the Gulf of America is central to delivering American energy independence. Here are the key takeaways from her keynote address ⬇️

RT @SecretaryBurgum: Under @POTUS, we’re putting in place a bold, long-term program that strengthens American Energy Dominance, creates goo….

JUST ANNOUNCED | New offshore oil & gas lease sales are scheduled in the Gulf of America and Cook Inlet, Alaska. Required by One Big Beautiful Bill Act, these sales are distinct from the National OCS Program, which is still under development. Details:

We work with Pacific Island communities to honor and understand their complex maritime heritage to inform potential offshore mineral leasing. Respecting Indigenous voices is key to mapping cultural landscapes and avoiding conflicts with any future leasing.

Louisiana’s coastline is in a fight against time, and the tide. We’re partnering with @LouisianaCPRA to restore West Belle Headland using 4M cubic yards of offshore sand, which will fortify storm defenses, habitat, and the working coast. Read the story:

At Arctic Encounter, an annual gathering of Arctic leaders and policymakers, policy meets the permafrost. Alaska Regional Director Givey Kochanowski joined @EPA and @DOI leaders to discuss how smarter coordination can support sustainable development in Arctic communities.

America’s offshore energy resources are powering the nation. In FY2024 that looks like:. 🛢️668M barrels of oil.🛢️700B cubic feet of natural gas. Learn more: #AmericanEnergyAmericanJobs

Ever wonder who manages our nation’s offshore energy resources? . Meet the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management👋 . From facilitating offshore energy development to ensuring efficient resource management, we play a crucial role in powering our nation.

RT @SecretaryBurgum: The One Big Beautiful Bill Act significantly shifted how we manage our public lands, support energy development and wo….

Why explore the deep ocean? Because the minerals beneath it power everything from energy to national defense. We joined @USGS & @NOAA @oceanexplorer to map mineral-rich zones in Alaska’s Aleutian Arc. Dive in:

Energy Dominance starts here. Through science-informed decisions, we support our nation’s economy and our offshore energy resources.

We have extended the public comment period on the proposed seabed critical mineral leasing offshore American Samoa. Now open through August 15. This is your chance to ensure the voices of American Samoa are heard and respected. Learn more:

We are exploring the ocean’s deepest frontier with @NOAAOcean, @USGS, & @OECIexplore on a Pacific expedition where Orpheus AUV captured images of manganese nodules at 11,000m near the Mariana Trench.

In March 2025, Gulf states & counties received $353 million from annual revenues for wetlands restoration, hurricane protection, beach nourishment, and flood prevention. When offshore resources are managed responsibly, coastal communities benefit. @DOIONRR

To support coastal restoration projects to address serious erosion, we need to know where our marine minerals are located. Our National Offshore Sand Inventory tracks this information for planning and bolstering emergency response and preparedness. Dig in:

We help coastal communities plan for restoration projects while serving as ocean stewards. Since 1995, we have allocated over200 million cubic yards of sand and rebuilt 500 miles of coastline to strengthen coastal resiliency. For more on these projects:
