Oil supplies and consumption show US draining faster than world

Foreigners burn roughly 900 million barrels annually and have resources to last over 20 years at current rates. The US produces over 200 million barrels per year and would exhaust its known supply in about eighteen years, consuming its own oil much faster than the rest of the world.
