That’s a little misleading. You also have to remember that not all oil is created equally. Most of our own refineries are set up to process “heavy” and “sour” crude oil, while most of the oil drilled in the US is lighter and sweeter. That’s a big part of the reason why we import so much oil even though we produce even more. The type we produce isn’t the type we are set up to process.
