Abstract
The United States is now importing 46.6 percent of its petroleum. This 46.6 percent amounts to over 7,000,000 barrels per day. This paper discusses the adverse effects of these oil imports primarily from an Antisubmarine Warfare (ASW) point of view. in the event of an oil embargo and/or an attack by enemy submarines, there are serious questions as to the U.S. ability to support NATO, or even to sustain an efficient economy.
