DM upstream energy-security liberalisation
Developed-market governments reversing or relaxing upstream petroleum and natural-gas exploration restrictions to restore domestic production capacity and energy-security independence. Instruments include exploration-ban removals, Crown-minerals purpose amendments (from 'sustainably manage' to 'promote'), permit-regime restructuring, and decommissioning-liability reform. Distinct from energy-supply-emergency-response (which is import-side contingency activation) and em-resource-upstream-capture (which is EM exporter upstream-processing capture).
