Key points
Congress seeks to disapprove new rules for offshore oil and gas operations, which aimed to update safety requirements for challenging conditions.
If passed, the rule concerning high-pressure, high-temperature operations on the Outer Continental Shelf will not take effect, meaning no new safety standards in this area.
