Working my calculator 1,549,000 barrels of oil per day times 30 days in April times average cost of oil for April 2008 $110 that's $5,111,700,000!! Doing the same math but using April 2007 average cost of barrel of oil $72, you get $3,345,840,000.00. That is a difference of $1,765,860,000 just for one month! or $58,862,000 per day!!
