Oil


I am not actually trying to compare apple - to - apple here, this is so worthy to read. Most countries listed below have a very long reserve life (the amount of years they have till the oil is finished), and they have a low population compared to their oil reserve. Hence, they can cater to their own needs without any bother to the supply. Actually, doing some research can do wonders instead of blaming others.



UAE

Population : 4,380,000

Oil Reserve : 97 billion barrels

Production rate : 2.5 million barrels per day

Reserve life : 107 years
