ANWR's oil would not flow at the rate the US uses oil. Oil would be coming from ANWR for decades.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve also can't supply oil as fast as we can use it, but even with that being the case its would last for maybe 2 months.

To put it another way ANWR has an estimated 10 to 22 and a half times as much oil as the SPR.
