President Trump announced that the United States will use Venezuelan oil to refill the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). The announcement follows an oil deal reached between the Trump administration and the Venezuelan government.
The U.S. strategic reserve currently sits near a 44-year low, holding approximately 290 million barrels. The newly established Venezuela deal specifically seeks to lift global crude supply while simultaneously providing the resource necessary to replenish the depleted U.S. reserves.
