So now you understand that the USA is actually oil poor…

All info is based upon 2016 data. Last year of complete data. Oops…

Oil Reserves in the United States

See also: List of countries by Oil Reserves

The United States holds 35,230,000,000 barrels of proven oil reserves as of 2016, ranking 11th in the world and accounting for about 2.1% of the world’s total oil reserves of 1,650,585,140,000 barrels.

The United States has proven reserves equivalent to 4.9 times its annual consumption. This means that, without imports, there would be about 5 years of oil left (at current consumption levels and excluding unproven reserves).

Thus, why all the hate against oil rich countries…

The USA has wasted its oil and now wasting its gas…
