At full consumption. I'm pretty sure that in circumstances that would lead to the use of the reserverve, oil would be strongly rationed and directed towards hospitals/army/police/logicstics/etc.
- qwytw 2y agoSure, but US has almost doubled its production since the early 2000s while consumption has actually slightly decreased. So I'd question the need to maintain a very large reserve anymore. IMHO these days using it as an "economic tool" to balance supply/demand would make a lot more.
