Concept: November 20, 2022. Status of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve of the United States

As of November 11, 2022, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) of the United States has 392,119,000 barrels of oil, the equivalent of 53.9% full. If the current drawdown would continue, the SPR would be empty by March 2, 2025. However, due to legal reasons, the SPR can only fall to about 238,000,000 barrels of oil by 2028.

The current drawdown was put in place to mitigate the effect of the increased international oil priced derived from the unfolding geopolitical events.
