Draining the emergency oil reserves for political purposes and not refilling it is good for Americans.

Draining the emergency oil reserves for political purposes and not refilling it is good for Americans.

WASHINGTON, D.C.— Today, following the finalization of contracts for the most recent solicitation of crude oil for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), the U.S. Department of Energy confirms that more than 40 million barrels have been purchased and delivered or secured for delivery by December 2024. On top of the 140 million barrels of oil secured by working with Congress to cancel previously-mandated sales, this brings the total purchased or kept in the SPR since 2022 to 180 million barrels – the full amount sold following the unprecedented Russian war against Ukraine.

By improving procurement practices and providing consistency in repurchasing process for industry, DOE has been able to take advantage of windows of market stability to directly purchased a total of 43.25 million barrels of oil for the SPR for an average price of $77. This is nearly $20 per barrel lower than the $95 average sales price for 2022’s emergency sales, meeting the Administration’s commitment to secure a good deal for taxpayers. DOE has also successfully accelerated nearly 5.5 million barrels in exchange returns initially slated for the summer of 2024 to maximize SPR refill. DOE will continue to evaluate options to refill the SPR even more with the remaining proceeds from the 2022 emergency sales while securing a good deal for taxpayers, taking into account planned exchange returns and market developments.

“From the beginning, this administration has put the economic and energy security of the American people first. This milestone is a proof point that when the Biden-Harris Administration makes and implements a plan, we deliver for the American people,” said U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm. “As promised, we have secured the 180 million barrels back to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve released in response to Putin’s war in Ukraine – and we accomplished this while getting a good deal for taxpayers and maintaining the readiness of the world’s largest Strategic Petroleum Reserve.”

This milestone underscores the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to safeguard and replenish this critical energy security asset. This follows the historic release from the SPR to address the significant global supply disruption caused by Putin’s war on Ukraine and help keep the domestic market well supplied, ultimately helping to bring down prices for American consumers and businesses. Analysis from the Department of the Treasury indicates that SPR releases last year, along with coordinated releases from international partners, reduced gasoline prices by as much as 40 cents per gallon.
