Under the authority of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975, the Department of Energy (DOE) maintains and operates the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). In the event of an energy emergency, the President would initiate a drawdown of the Reserve to counter the harmful economic effects of a severe shortage in oil supplies. To prepare better for an emergency, DOE has conducted several exercises to test the Reserve's administrative and operational systems. In 1984, DOE planned a test drawdown and sale of SPR oil. This exercise would, for the first time, have involved the sale of a small amount of SPR oil to the highest bidders, and would have tested simultaneously the operation of all SPR subsystems. This Note lays the groundwork for the evaluation of such a test.

In 1973, the United States and other western countries were shocked by the Arab oil embargo. Lines formed at gasoline pumps; fuel stations ran out of supply; prices skyrocketed; and the nation realized its vulnerability to decisions made by leaders of countries half a world away. In response, the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), which was signed into law by President Gerald Ford in 1975, has become the nation?s primary tool of energy policy. Following its first major use during the Persian Gulf War of 1991, officials and policy makers at the highest levels increasingly turned to the SPR to stave off shortages and mitigate rising energy prices. Author and historian Bruce A. Beaubouef examines, for the first time, the interactions that have shaped the development of the SPR. He argues that the SPR has survived because it is a passive regulatory tool that serves to protect energy consumers and petroleum consumption and does not compete with the American oil industry. Indeed, by the late twentieth century, as American import dependency reached new heights, refiners and transporters increasingly relied upon the SPR as a ready resource to help maintain feedstock when supplies were tight or disrupted. In a time of continued vulnerability, this definitive work will be of interest to those concerned with the history, economy, and politics of the oil and gas industry, as well as to historians and practitioners of oil and energy policy.
