The oil is from US producers, when they sell that oil out it won't be for $25/barrel when most of that oil will be from fracked wells costing $50+/dollars a barrel to operate [1].
"The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates that in 2019, about 2.81 billion barrels (or 7.7 million barrels per day) of crude oil were produced directly from tight oil resources in the United States. This was equal to about 63% of total U.S. crude oil production in 2019." [0]
