US Strategic Petroleum Reserve Falls to Lowest Level Since 1982
Original: U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve Falls to Lowest Level Since 1982
The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve has dropped to its lowest level since 1982 following large drawdowns. The release of hundreds of millions of barrels over the past year, intended to curb gasoline prices, has left the emergency stockpile severely depleted, prompting debate over energy security and how quickly the reserve can be refilled.
Why now: Concerns over U.S. energy security and high oil prices are drawing fresh attention to the depleted emergency crude stockpile.
