'Drill, baby, drill' is unlikely under Trump, Exxon says
Briefly

Mallon emphasized that while there may be encouragement for increased drilling, major oil producers are unlikely to significantly raise output due to economic considerations and a cautious approach.
Despite Trump's push for increased oil production via federal lands, Mallon noted that much of the land in Texas is private, and a significant drilling ramp-up isn't expected.
Mallon observed that US oil producers are approaching production strategically, considering the timing of bringing new wells online against their existing inventory.
The comments from Mallon illustrate a hesitance among major US oil operators to shift towards a 'drill, baby, drill' mentality, citing the importance of long-term economic viability.
