When did U.S. oil consumption exceed our 'Production' of domestic crude?
...this time I said "Production" instead of "Supply"
even though I don't think that should have mattered that much since Supply is usually based on Production.
Hello Seederman
looking at the Graph you provided it sure "Looks" like 'production' might have been enough to exceed 'demand' in the early 1050's !
(by far)

Consumption has always exceeded our production; we've always imported some in addition to what we've produced.
