  The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) has become the nation's primary tool of energy policy. This book examines the interactions that have shaped the development of the SPR. It argues that the SPR has survived because it is a passive regulatory tool that serves to protect energy consumers and petroleum consumption.
