Also, how much of our gas comes from the US?
Most of the petroleum in the U.S. (77 percent) is produced domestically. U.S. production was equal to 40 percent of consumption 10 years ago, and much of that change is due to hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.
Additionally, where does the gas in my car come from? Gasoline is made from crude oil, which contains hydrocarbons – organic compounds made up entirely of hydrogen and carbon atoms. Crude oil has historically been obtained through vertical wells drilled into underground and undersea reservoirs. A well is essentially a round hole lined with a metal pipe called a casing.
