In a word glut the oil from Venezuela is looking nuttier and nuttier .
Heather Stewart in the G, the Kyiv Independent --
"" “The United States is the largest oil producer in the world, which would make you think that the country is energy secure, but there is a wrinkle in that, because most of the oil they produce is light oil from fracking, and the U.S. currently does not have sufficient infrastructure to refine this,” Aylett explained.
“So, actually, 60% of oil that goes into cars in the U.S. is ‘heavy’ oil from Canada that the U.S. can easily process. This makes sense economically, but it is possible that the Trump administration sees this dependency as a security issue.” ""
