Trump administration gets no bids at Alaska Cook Inlet oil and gas auction

March 4 (Reuters) - A division of the U.S. Department of the Interior said on Wednesday that it had received no bids at its sale of oil and gas drilling rights in Alaska's Cook Inlet.

"At this time, no bids have been received," the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management said in a post on its website. "In accordance with (One Big Beautiful Bill Act), we will continue to hold leasing opportunities for Cook Inlet so that industry has a regular, predictable federal leasing schedule that ensures we achieve President Trump's American Energy Dominance Agenda."
