New report on
international energy reserves from the Congressional Research Service.
Link to the actual
Report (http://epw.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Files.View&FileStore_id=f7bd7b77-ba50-48c2-a635-220d7cf8c519
)
As shown in the charts below, the U.S. has 1,321 billion barrels of oil when combining its
recoverable natural gas, oil and coal reserves. The CRS reported barrels of oil equivalent for other sources of
energy, ie gas and coal.
While Russia is a close second with 1,248 billion barrels, other energy producing
nations are far behind. No. 3 is Saudi Arabia (543 billion barrels), followed by China (494 billion barrels), Iran
(426 billion barrels) and Canada (221 billion barrels).
Any guesses as to why we're not energy independent, and
not providing tens of thousands of jobs and lowering energy costs in this
country?
