Trump said he'll unleash an oil boom. Exxon Mobil CEO says not so fast.
Briefly

ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods indicated that, although he wants to maintain high production levels, the market is already well supplied and doesn’t have room for a significant immediate increase.
Energy analysts argue that major oil companies are prioritizing shareholder returns over new production projects, which limits the potential for a substantial oil boom in the U.S.
Ben Cahill from the University of Texas stated that the oil and gas markets are globalized, and the level of influence a U.S. president has on prices is minimal.
Cahill mentioned that while U.S. oil production may increase, it will be a gradual process, as the country currently produces record amounts at 12.9 million barrels a day.
