據道瓊斯1月19日消息，澳大利亞聯邦銀行的Vivek Dhar表示，盡管特朗普已經主張將放寬對美國頁巖油鉆井的管制，但是美國石油產量仍將主要取決于油價，而不是政策。他表示：“對于生產商來說，他們會以公司最大利益化為準則。當前的油價可能還不足以刺激美國生產商快速提高產量。”

　　Oil-Friendly Policy May Not Boost US Output

　　Though Trump has advocated easing regulations around US shale-oil drilling, output there will still be mainly determined by prices--not policies--says Vivek Dhar at Commonwealth Bank of Australia. For the producers, they will do what is most economical for their companies. He adds current prices might not be encouraging enough for America producers to quickly ramp up production.
