Sky Quarry highlights renewed Nevada leasing and drilling activity alongside a USGS estimate of about 1.407 billion barrels in undiscovered oil. The Eagle Springs Refinery could benefit from closer, lower-cost regional feedstock if exploration proves productive and offtake deals materialize, potentially enhancing Foreland's supply diversity and refinery utilization over time.
BLM Nevada lease sales in H1 2026 covered ~30,168 acres. All parcels received bids.
Two Nevada exploration wells approved: Trap Springs 11-42 and North Diamond Valley 1-A.
Foreland refinery could benefit from closer Nevada crude supply.
