Default Imported Oil

Major companies importing Middle Eastern oil (from 9/1/00- 8/31/01):

Shell 205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco 144,332,000 "
Exxon/Mobil 130,082,000 "
Marathon 117,740,000 "
Amoco 62,231,000 "

If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 billion.

Here are some large companies that DO NOT import Middle Eastern oil:

Citgo 0 barrels
Sunoco 0 "
Conoco 0 "
Sinclair 0 "
BP/Phillips 0 "

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and can be easily documented. Refineries located in the U.S. are required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing. They report on a monthly basis.
