This includes reimbursing the company for federal leases purchased under the Biden administration for two offshore wind farms off the coasts of New York and North Carolina. TotalEnergies will use the funds to develop a new liquified natural gas plant in Texas and oil drilling operations in the Gulf of Mexico and shale oil projects elsewhere in the US.
