Has anyone (besides the Armantrout's) verified these numbers, or is this just another anti-Middle East chain letter to delete? I applaud the earlier replyers (sp?) to the original e-mail, who diverted the topic of the e-mail from its suspicious intent to one of real importance - fossil fuel overconsumption.

I started looking into this and read that:
"Phillips and its co-venturers-ExxonMobil (operator), Shell and BP
-- are negotiating terms with the Saudi government."
http://www.phillips66.com/locations/saudiarabia.htm
And that Conoco merged with Phillips in August of 2002:

That moves Conoco and Phillips into the first category, below, with the other major companies that import (or will be importing) Middle Eastern oil.

Major companies that import Middle Eastern oil (for the period 9/1/00 - -8/31/01). 
Shell................ 205,742,000 barrels 
Chevron/Texaco....... 144,332,000 barrels 
Exxon /Mobil......... 130,082,000 barrels 
Marathon............. 117,740,000 barrels 
Amoco................ 62,231,000 barrels 

Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil: 
Citgo 0 barrels 
Sunoco 0 barrels 
Conoco 0 barrels 
Sinclair 0 barrels 
BP/Phillips 0 barrels 
Hess 0 barrels 

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and can be easily documented. Refineries located in the U.S. are required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing. They report on a monthly basis.
