Mexico, because transportation costs.\n\n... and because you can´t live with out us!

The United States and Russia, of course, just because of their size.  Smaller countries that are major mineral producers are Namibia, Congo (the big one, not the little one), South Africa, Australia, Mexico, and Peru

Who needs oil when you've GOT America

Right at this time, the Middle Eastern Nations provide and control the majority of today's oil. Unfortunately, the next 20 years will probably be provided by the same source (for the western world that is unless alternative means are initiated). Other parts of the world do have ample resources to assist in providing oil for the rest of the world. Countries such as Venezuela, Mexico, Russia and even Canada and be self sustaining in this area and the United States is currently purchasing oil from these areas. Canada has a vast reserve underground in what is called "Oil Sands" where the oil is actually trapped in sand which makes it a grainy like tar. It is very costly (at this time) to extract the oil from the sand.

the US gets it's oil from  OPEC ( Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countires). This includes Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and many other middle eastern countires. \nSOme of the oil does come from the south ( texas for example). As to prices google it.

Ofcourse there is. The US oil wells are running dry now. Oil companies need to buy new wells and hence look for other geographical locations. Oil is the only reason for wars by US led in the Gulf or Asia.

Haliburtons and Carlyes concerns with the oil fields, and the pipeline to the Indian Ocean. America has been funding the rebuilding of the oil fields and the pipeline, while our soilders are loosing their lives daily. What a price for such a few to profit over the deaths of hundreds of thousands.

Yes.\n\nThe largest reserves are found in the Middle East.  Saudi Arabia has the larges proved oil reserves at 160 billion barrels.  The other Persian Gulf countries of Iraq, Iran, and Kuwait also have some of the largest reserves in the world.  \n\nThe United States originally had a fairly large endowment of oil, much of which was located in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Alaska.  However, the U.S. has already consumed about 2/3 of this original amount making it the largest cumulative producer of oil.  \n\nThe western nations of Venezuela and Mexico also have substantial oil reserves.  In Europe, Russia has the largest oil reserves at 49 billion barrels.  Much of this is located around the Caspian Sea.  The United Kingdom also holds large reserves in the North Sea off the shore of Great Britain.  Other African countries such as Nigeria, Libya, and Algeria also have small amounts of oil reserves.

If there are, they'd probably be very small companies.\n\nCitgo is owned by the Venezuelan government.  BP Amoco is basically the British government now.\n\nEven the publicly held gas companies that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange are owned by so many investors that they can be termed American because they have corporate headquarters in America, but they may be owned by individuals in any number of companies.\n\nAnd there can't be any gas companies that still get all of their oil from America, as America doesn't produce enough gas to come close to providing enough of a supply.  Americans who import from the middle east aren't a lot different from Britons who import from the middle east.\n\nForeclosureFish\nhttp://www.foreclosurefish.com/

One of the world’s largest suppliers of reliable products and services to the oil and gas industry since 1919. Vice-President Cheney is a stockholder in this company and was responsible for Halliburton obtaining contracts for 'services rendered' in Iraq from the git-go. At the time, I smelled a rat. Collusion. I still do!\n\n                                                             HANK (Josh)

55 gal...no, we're not running out anytime soon. Just be prepared for european style prices until people start carpooling to work and trading in hummers/SUV's.\n\nChina & India are buying crude/crude futures like crazy. Nigeria & Argentina aren't producing to capacity. Katrina damaged a lot of US rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. \n\nWe still produce around half of the crude(which we turn to gas) we use daily. We also have "strategic reserves" of crude which we keep for things like wars but use when supplies get tight.\n\nSo we either reduce our demand, pay higher prices, or start drilling in Alaska and off our coast. I carpool with a coworker in a Miata. S*rew those OPEC countries- conserve!!!!
