Original: U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve Falls to Lowest Level Since 1982

The United States Strategic Petroleum Reserve has dropped to its lowest level since 1982, according to an Oilprice.com report drawing wide attention. The decline reflects sustained releases of emergency oil stocks amid high energy prices and supply concerns. Commenters are debating the policy of draining the reserve, questioning how easily it can be refilled and what the low inventory means for US energy security if a supply shock occurs.

Why now: Concern over US energy security and the consequences of draining emergency oil reserves is driving discussion.
