> Yes, the US export around 3.6M bbl/d in 2022. But, it imported around 6.3M bbl/day in the same year

You’re wrong, as the other comment points out. But these numbers are so wildly wrong that I’m curious for your source.

(8.5mm b/d in vs 10.15mm b.d out [1] in 2023. If we limit ourselves to crude oil, it's 4.1mm b/d out [2] vs hundreds of thousands in [3]. A literal order of magnitude.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_oil_impor... My numbers are 2022, yours 2023.

Yes, oh, the US got a small superavit in 2023. It is still not a relevant net exporter and won't be for the simple reason investments in the development of new fields have basically stopped with the Democrat government. So, the production will inevitably fall in the following years.
