Us emerges uks biggest oil supplier overtakes nigeria others

I think there may be some confusion here. The United States (US) has not emerged as the UK's biggest oil supplier, overtaking Nigeria or any other country.

According to the UK's Office for National Statistics (ONS), in 2020, the UK's top oil suppliers were:

1. Norway: 24.4% of total oil imports
2. Nigeria: 14.1% of total oil imports
3. Russia: 12.4% of total oil imports
4. United States: 9.4% of total oil imports
5. Saudi Arabia: 8.5% of total oil imports

These figures are based on the UK's trade in goods statistics, which show the value of oil imports from various countries.

It's worth noting that the UK's oil imports have been declining in recent years due to the country's increasing focus on renewable energy and reducing its reliance on fossil fuels. Additionally, the UK has been exploring ways to increase its domestic oil production, particularly in the North Sea.

So, while the US is an important oil supplier to the UK, it has not overtaken Nigeria or any other country as the UK's biggest oil supplier.
