The Trump administration touted the new licensing on Feb. 3 of the Texas GulfLink project—a crude oil-exporting terminal proposed in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, about 30 miles offshore of Texas—claiming the country is restoring its “maritime dominance” and unleashing a new “golden age of American energy.”
But one key voice was missing from the celebration: Texas GulfLink’s developer. Dallas-based Sentinel Midstream declined to comment on the administration’s announcement, and didn’t issue any press release for its politically ballyhooed project approval.
