Crude oil balance of trade

In

2009, Europe experienced a 10% improvement

in its position of net importer since oil imports largely decreased consistent with a lowered demand for crude oil.

The US deficit in trade of oil reduced by 8%

during the year since exports rose by more than 50% and imports were also lowered by the economic slowdown. Japan achieved a 13% reduction its dependency on

oil imports

. Conversely, Asia faced a slight deterioration of its position of net importer since

exports of oil continued to reduce by 4.5% in 2009

.

Chinese worsened its position of net importer of oil by 14%

since imports of crude oil surged during the year and exports remained stable. The Middle East faced a lowered surplus in its balance of trade since exports of oil reduced by 11%. On the other hand, a 15% cut in oil imports in CIS led to strengthen the region's position of net exporter of crude oil during 2009.
