Wondering about our crude oil imports...Posted Jun-25-08 22:57:39 PDT I've just been to the U.S. Department of Energy's website and viewed the crude oil importation quantities from the Middle East. Surprisingly, we only get a fraction of our crude oil from the Middle East. I didn't examine the list in great detail (it's pretty lengthy), but looking it over, it would appear that we get as much or more crude oil from Canada or Mexico as we do from the Middle East. You can go to the site and see for yourself. You have to click a few links to find the list, but it's right there for all to see. Pretty interesting, actually. If you have trouble finding the info, just let me know and I'll try to guide you to it. |
