US petroleum imports have shrunk by 56.7% since 1977. This means a loss of sales of 4.9-million b/d of crude and refined products for the petroleum-exporting countries. However, suppliers have not lost sales equally. On the contrary, a graph shows how Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Nigeria have taken shares from Canada and Venezuela and are now the principal suppliers to the United States. The United Kingdom has emerged in seventh position, after Venezuela. Various tables and graphs depict the import picture, broken down by such elements as the 5 Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADs) and residuals imports. Also, the fuel price/tax series for the Western Hemisphere countries is updated in this issue.
