The Trump administration wants to raise loan limits available under a coronavirus stimulus package and bar lenders from discriminating against drillers in an effort to ease a severe cash crunch in the drilling industry, according to Reuters.

Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette has been working with Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin to roughly double the size-limit on loans available to mid-tier U.S. energy companies under the recently passed CARES Act stimulus package to $200-$250 million to help them survive the fallout of the pandemic.

Brouillette and Mnuchin also plan to work with U.S. regulators and the banking industry to ensure financial institutions don’t discriminate against oil drillers when determining who receives credit.
