(Bloomberg) -- The Biden administration is announcing a plan Thursday to begin purchasing oil to refill the nation’s emergency reserve, according to a person familiar with the matter. 

The Energy Department will start the buyback process with a call for bids for 60 million barrels this fall, though the actual purchases won’t take place until sometime in the future, according to the person. 

President Joe Biden in March ordered the release of a historic 180 million barrels --a million barrels of oil a day for six months -- in an effort to tame oil and gas prices that have skyrocketed after Russia invaded Ukraine.

I don't know how us people choose this devil president Biden
Come on. He was chosen by machine. U know
The people wouldn't have chosen Biden if they had chosen a better potus than Trump in 2016.
possibly true, only problem is there are almost certainly no good choices. Possibly one or two, but even they may turn out to be bad choices
releasing reserve OIL go high (reverse effect) now they are purchasing it might go higher again...simple solution approve all permits on drilling like trump did...simple law of supply and demand...boost production more supply price go down...biden is useless
Number of US drilling rigs AND US production of gas/crude are at high since end of Trump's term.
this man is responsible for whole world inflation..firstly he come up with the policies to hamper crude oil production and then though his efforts of instigating Russia and Ukraine, we r inching towards world war.

the Oil should ONLY be from US Suppliers at Volume Discount!
why should the US suppliers sell at a discount to govt when they can sell at market at fair price?
because they can always invade Iraq again and get free oil
