How much is in the SPR?

“There are 700 million barrels (110,000,000 m3) capacity”, is what I found on a search.

That’s the total storage capacity.

Current inventory is not quite 570 million barrels.

This plan would deplete roughly 30% of that.

I read they are going to pump it dry in 700 days. They are supposed to release 1 millon barrels per day.
