Biden to release 10M more barrels from Strategic Petroleum Reserve in November in wake of OPEC+ cuts

President Biden on Wednesday said he would release 10 million more barrels of oil from the U.S.’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) in November in a move to counter raising gas prices again.

His decision was announced just hours after Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC+) said it would be cut oil production by 2 million barrels a day.

The cuts will restore the oil market for top producers like Saudi Arabia and Russia but are also expected to drive up costs at the pump globally.

But Biden’s attempt to circumvent the spike in gases prices expected to hit the market in time for the midterm elections may not prove all that effective.

The story will be that it all seeped back into the earth or some other excuse. Another Camp Lejune?

Heh heh

I heard someone call into a radio talk show and complain that profit on $2.00/gal gas was 1-2 cents but profit on $3.00-$5.00/gal gas was an outrageous 3-5 cents per gallon.

Where did the money go from selling the oil? How much for the Big Guy?

Nice plan Obama, make it harder to drill for oil in this country and sell off our reserve. What to do when we are out of oil?

Oh God these people and their lack of scope. I guess the same people who lost their minds over COVID 19.

At least the Titanic went down with the lights on.

LesgoBrandon not so much

I don't think there are any lights on between his ears.

I was thinking with regards to the OPEC cut, which is 5 days.
They’re cutting 2 mil a day, so we’ll be covering their cut for 5 days.
I think we use just under 19 million a day.
Does that make sense to you?

Reserves have never been lower. Never were higher during President Trump’s time.
