That doesn't make sense. In 2017 we didn't even use 8 billion barrels of oil as a country... We get the vast majority of our oil from Canada and ourselves. Europe on the other hand...

You're off by a magnitude of 1000 me thinks. Every day we use more than we import in an entire year from the Saudis. (20 million barrels a day compared to 10 million imported a year)
