U.S. Shale Surge Offsets Lowest Saudi Oil Imports Since 1980s - Bloomberg:

"America’s role in the global oil market was flipped on its head in 2017. As shale producers cranked out more and more crude, the U.S. relied less and less on some of its traditional sources of oil. At the same time, exports of crude, gasoline and other refined fuels surged higher than ever before.

U.S. frackers ramped up production as prices rose toward $60 a barrel late in the year, drawing more drillers to the market."
