Of course, Saudi Arabia represents the bulk of your (foreign) oil reserves... because you fixed it that way! If you had spent all the money on prospecting and drilling in West Africa then the latter would have displaced Saudi Arabia as your key supplier... Perhaps that's true, and that's an interesting take, but it comes down to known oil reserves. As far as I know the known oil reserves in the Middle East vastly outnumber the reserves in West Africa, so I don't think your argument is a valid one. We concentrate our efforts where the biggest known resrves and returns are located, and as far as I know that is easily the Middle East. Saudi Araba #1 reserves, Iraq #2 reserves (perhaps #1 after all the oil is accounted for). I don't know where the countries in West Africa like Nigeria are on the known reserves list, but I doubt they're even in the top 10, which is why the U.S. pays so little attention to them.
