U.S. airlines consume about 1.6 million barrels of jet fuel on a daily basis. Of this amount, only 148,000 barrels of fuel are imported. Approximately 145 refineries in the U.S. produce 1.55 million barrels of jet fuel per day. Also we don't use gallons to measure fuel burn, we use pounds as the gallon marker will change as we go from ground to cruise level. Jet fuel will always weigh the same no matter what altitude its at.
