Ohio, historically known for its abundant gas resources, is evolving into an oil production frontier thanks to favorable business conditions, clear regulations and more than $100 billion in investments poured into the state's oil and natural gas industry over the past decade. Official figures show that Ohio's oil production jumped by 40% year over year to 6.9 million barrels in the second quarter of 2023, positioning the state for a bigger role in the nation's energy mix.

Sandra Day OâConnor, the first woman on the United States Supreme Court, a rancherâs daughter who wielded great power over American law from her seat at the center of the courtâs ideological spectrum, died on Friday in Phoenix. She was 93.
The Supreme Court announced her death in a statement, saying the cause was complications of dementia. She grew up in Arizona and lived there most of her life.

The energy sector is off to a broadly lower start, pressured by mild weakness in the underlying commodities and the major equity futures. U.S. stock index futures were largely subdued as investors were on edge in the run up to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's comments which are expected to hold clues on the interest rate path.
WTI and Brent crude oil futures steadied with the market seemingly unconvinced that the latest round of production cuts by the OPEC+ coalition will be able to lift prices out of their recent slump.Yesterday OPEC+ producers agreed to remove around 2.2 million bpd of oil from the global market in the first quarter of next year, which included a rolling over of Saudi Arabia and Russia's current 1.3 million bpd of voluntary cuts. The market received the news with skepticism and confusion, driven by concerns about compliance given the voluntary nature of the reductions, as well as investors' prior expectations of deeper cuts.
Natural gas futures are down in early trading as the NOAA's 6-10 day outlook shows above-normal temps over most of the US from OH, TN and the Lower MS Valleys westward to the Pacific Coast, especially across the northern and central Great Plains.
Emissions reduction drive paying off for Permian player

Methane emissions reduction measures such as maximizing natural gas value, facility upgrades, continuous monitoring and flyovers have helped Permian Basin operator Triple Crown Resources cut its methane intensity by around 90% since 2020 and to eliminate flaring. "The next leg of improvement will come from our portfolio effect. We grow production through the low emissions facilities and get our costs down," said co-CEO and co-founder Ryan Keys.
đBefore the opening bell: US stock futures rise early Friday, after the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished its best month in more than a year.
Inflation continues to cool. The Fedâs preferred inflation measure increased 3% in October, down from 3.4% in September and getting closer to the central bankâs much-ballyhooed target of 2%. A drop in gas pricesâdown 4.9% from the previous monthâwas a major factor. Increases in core prices, which strip out food and energy costs, also slowed last month. In the last six months, core inflation has grown at a 2.5% annual rateâdown significantly from 5.1% last year. The news means the Fed will likely keep interest rates unchanged at its final 2023 meeting on Dec. 12 and 13.
