14.  Algeria... 2.47 %

13.  Venezuela... 2.80 %

12.  Iraq... 2.81 %

11.  Kuwait... 2.93 %

10.  Nigeria... 2.95 %

9.  Brazil... 3.20 %

8.  United Arab Emirates... 3.30 %

7.  Mexico... 3.39 %

6.  Canada... 4.30 %

5.  Iran... 4.9 %

4.  China... 5.0 %

3.  United States... 10.4 %

2.  Russia... 11.6 %

1.  Saudi Arabia... 12.1 %

It is estimated that the United States uses 25 % of the world's oil production, 60-70 % imported.  The United States and Canada use oil more for transportation than for heat and power, but the opposite is true for most of the rest of the world.
