摘要

WASHINGTON-Petroleum exports from the United States exceeded imports for the month of September, the first month this has happened since monthly record keeping began in 1973, the U.S. Energy Information Administration says. The United States imported 260.0 million barrels of crude oil and petroleum products in September while exporting a total of 262.7 MMbb1, EIA details. It says long-running changes in U.S. trade patterns for both crude oil and petroleum products led to a steady decrease in overall net imports and the month's 89,000 barrel a day difference.
