$Is America Prepared for an Oil Supply Crisis? | Jay Young on WILK Radio King Operating Corporation founder and CEO Jay Young joined WILK Radio to discuss the condition of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, global oil-market risks and the importance of continued domestic energy production. Jay explains how horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing helped raise U.S. oil production to approximately 13 million barrels per day. Production from the Permian Basin, Eagle Ford and Bakken has reduced America’s dependence on overseas suppliers, but the United States still consumes more oil than it produces. The conversation also examines why the United States exports some of its domestically produced light crude while importing heavier oil from countries such as Canada and Venezuela. Many Gulf Coast refineries were built to process heavier crude, creating a complicated mismatch between the oil America produces and the oil its refining system needs. Jay also discusses the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, Venezuela’s significant oil resources and the risks surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, where approximately 20% of the world’s oil supply normally travels. Topics include: • The Strategic Petroleum Reserve • U.S. oil production and consumption • Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing • The Permian Basin, Eagle Ford and Bakken • American refinery capacity and crude compatibility • Oil production in Venezuela • The Strait of Hormuz • Global oil prices and gasoline prices • Domestic drilling and energy security Jay is the founder and CEO of King Operating Corporation and author of The Upside of Oil and Gas Investing.
