I think it would work, hypothetically, but of course, as Justin said, the trouble is finding one. That, and oil companies that don't import oil from the middle east would be just as expensive, if not more, because they don't produce as much.
We have an oil drilling company in south jersey, and a few other places around the united states, but none of them produce enough oil to be distributed in the quantities that we use around the states. Our other option is to drill in Alaska, but, it's full of endangered species and beautiful land, I highly doubt the US is willing to tear it up now, nor in the future.
