US uses about 16 million barrels of crude per day.

These are volume meansures, so there is some slop in comparison - mass is conserved, not volume

4 Billion gallons

42 gallons per barrel
100 million barrels

365 days per year
273,000 barrels a day.

The US 3.4 Billion is about 1.5 % of total crude use.
