Tags: oil saudi arabia russia united states oil production es u.s. oil production numbers International Energy Agency iea 49 • Permalink

now the United States imports roughly 20 percent of its energy needs. It is currently the world’s third-largest oil producer.
2020 the United States is expected to become the world’s largest oil producer, according to the International Energy Agency’s recent report.
2030 the United States will export more energy than it uses domestically, according to this incredibly bullish report.
2035 the United States will become nearly 100 percent self-sufficient on the oil-usage front, which sounds like the IEA is just making stuff up. source
