Oil reserves of various countries: the United States 91 million tons, Japan 80 million tons, how much is China?

introduction

Since the founding of New China, China has always attached great importance to the development of
industry and manufacturing.
In today's society, for any country, in order to obtain the development of industrial manufacturing, it is necessary to have sufficient oil resources
.
In addition, oil also occupies an extremely important position
in many fields such as military weapons and infrastructure.

For now, the oil reserves of the superpower, the United States, are undoubtedly quite large
.
Japan, an island country with a small geographical area, also has oil reserves
of 80 million tons.
So, how much oil reserves does China have? Below, Xiaobian will explain it to you in detail
.

1.
U.
S.
oil reserves: 91 million tons

Since World War 2, the United States has been the superpower
of the international community.
Whether in political, economic, cultural and other aspects, the United States has a very lofty position
.
To this day, there are still many capitalist countries that follow the lead of the United States
.
However, it is worth mentioning that the United States is not an oil power in
itself.

Like many countries, U.
S.
oil resources are obtained through imports
.
In 1972, an oil crisis erupted
without warning.
In this crisis, the United States, as a superpower, has also been implicated
.
That year, U.
S.
GDP had an unprecedented waterloo
.

Since then, the U.
S.
government has realized the importance of
oil for its own development.
It is precisely because of this that there will be a series of follow-up actions
.
For example, cooperation with Saudi Arabia to obtain large amounts of imported oil
by maintaining good relations with Saudi Arabia.

Until now, the United States has also been stabilizing relations
with Saudi Arabia.
As an oil power, Saudi Arabia can provide a steady stream of oil resources
for the United States as long as he wants.
However, it is worth mentioning that the relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia has always been confused
.
Even now, there are still many uncertainties
.

Judging from the relevant data and statistics of the relevant departments of the United Nations, the existing oil reserves of the United States have reached 91 million tons
.
Such data is also quite considerable in the international community
.
Not only that, but due to the small per capita consumption of oil in the United States, such reserves are also very sufficient for the
United States.

Japan's oil reserves: 80 million tons

For the country of Japan, I think everyone is very familiar with it
.
As a small island country, it does not have many oil resources
itself.
However, Japan's economy has always been very developed, and it has enough economic strength to import oil
from other countries.

At present, Japan's oil reserves have accumulated about
80 million tons.
Compared with the United States, it is only 10 million tons
.
However, it is worth mentioning that Japan has only a population
of about 100 million.
In terms of oil consumption, Japan also has a unique advantage
.
Even if he does not import oil after that, the 80 million tons of oil he already has now is enough for him to consume for a while
.

3.
China's oil reserves: 85 million tons

Compared with the United States and Japan, China is actually miserable
in this regard.
On the one hand, we don't have much oil resources on our own soil
.
Even if there is, it is some oilfields
of not very good quality.
Coupled with the fact that we do not have sufficient mature extraction technology, the quality of the oil resources obtained in the end is far less than that of imports
.

On the other hand, China's population is large
.
As of now, it is still one
of the most populous countries in the world.
Under such circumstances, even if China's per capita oil consumption is not much, it is a very large number together
.
For now, China's oil reserves are about 85 million tons, 5 million tons less than the United States and 5 million tons
more than Japan.
Although in terms of total oil reserves, China is not far behind
.
But based on the huge population of 1.
4 billion, the average apportionment of oil consumption per person is actually very
small.

In addition, as a manufacturing country, China's demand for oil is also particularly strong
.
It is for this reason that 85 million tons of oil reserves are still far from enough for us
.
In the future, it is inevitable to strive
for more oil resources.

In fact, in recent years, the relevant government departments have also been paying great attention to exchanges
with oil powers.
In the development process of Middle Eastern countries, China has always spared no effort to help
.
In addition to genuinely wanting to help these international partners achieve development together, there is also a little selfishness
in importing oil.

However, for now, China's main oil importer is still Russia
in the north.
China's relations with Russia have always been quite good
.
Now with the oil deal, the two sides are getting closer and closer
in the case of three views.
With the help of Russia, our oil resources have also been fully guaranteed
.

It is worth mentioning that the reason why China is slow to develop oil resources in China, in addition to the hardware conditions can not keep up, on the other hand, it does not want to disturb the lives
of the vast number of ordinary people.
The exploitation of petroleum resources will inevitably affect the surrounding people and cause great trouble
to their lives.

epilogue

In order to better protect the practical interests of these people, government departments would rather import oil than easily develop
oil resources.
However, I believe that with the continuous progress of technology in the future, China's oil resources can also be better guaranteed, and let us wait and see!
