21 U.S. ECONOMY RUNS ON OIL Total U.S. Energy Consumption Transportation Sector

22 National Petroleum Technology Office U.S. Supply and Demand October 2000, (Thousands Barrels per Day) Supply Vol US Production 9,566 Crude5,786 NGL’s 1,930 Other1,847 Imports11,285 Crude8,984 Products2,301 Total Supply20,851 Source API Demand Vol Domestic 20,532 Gasoline8,632 Distillates3,918 Residual Fuel1,038 Jet Fuel1,773 Other5,362 Exports976 Total Demand 21,508 Crude Runs15,276 % Capacity93.6

23 National Petroleum Technology Office What is 20 Million Barrels per Day ?  Fills and Empties the New Orleans Superdome Twice a Week  Dome Volume 125,000,000 Cubic Feet 71,000,000 Barrels  At $30/B = $600,000,000 / Day

24 National Petroleum Technology Office Average Capacity and Number of U.S. Operating Refineries Source: API Basic Petroleum Data Book and EIA Data

25 Transportation Emissions Remain a National Concern, Especially In Urban Areas  Automobile manufacturers have made substantial progress in reducing emissions per vehicle, but in the U.S.:  Transportation produces: 3 77% of carbon monoxide, 3 49% of nitrogen oxides, 3 40% of volatile organics, and 3 32% of carbon dioxide emissions  Population and miles traveled continue to increase  In 1998, over 113 million people live in areas not meeting National Ambient Air Quality Standards (EPA, August, 1999) Source: Transportation Energy Data Book: Edition 18, DOE/ORNL-6941, September 1998, and EIA Annual Energy Outlook 1999, DOE/EIA-0383(99), December 1998
