"However, largely because of declines in domestic crude oil production and corresponding increases in crude oil imports, EIA expects the United States to return to being a net petroleum importer on an annual basis in both 2021 and 2022."

Even if that expectation comes true (and increased drilling in the Permian because of higher prices makes it unlikely, imo) the US still has no need for middle eastern supplies. The amount of available imports from Canada/Mexico is way higher than any reasonable expectation or US imports.
