US Can Use Its Strategic Oil Reserve Over Coming Months, Deputy Energy Secretary Says
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The United States still has ability to use its strategic petroleum reserve over the coming months to fight high oil prices, Deputy Secretary of Energy David Turk said on Tuesday.
"We still have some additional ability to use this strategic petroleum reserve over the coming weeks and months as needed," Turk said during a event hosted by Axios on global energy reliability.
The Biden administration has recently delivered more than 90% of the 180 million barrels it has already targeted from the nation’s oil reserve for domestic energy companies to turn into fuel that could help lower US pump prices.
