These are X2M countries -- those which have transitioned from eXporters to iMporters. (For consistency, these data are mostly denominated in Exajoules -- 1 Ej = 163.5 million barrels = 0.45 Million barrels/day in 1 year -- with the vertical scale automatic, so please look at the numbers on the right for scale.)
 <p>
Many of these countries conform to the "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Export_Land_Model">Export Land Model</a>" that was defined and elaborated by Dallas Geologist Jeff Brown a number of years ago.

      <div style="border:1px dotted black;padding:1em;">1945. The United States of America was an early member of this dubious club, with its crossover point to the left of this set of graphs. So I found another graph that shows how things were earlier.</div>

     <div style="border:1px dotted black;padding:1em;">1993. Next in line was China. The Chinese juggernaut started when they figured out how to exploit their offshore oil and sell it for a profit in the 1980s. Why do you suppose Nixon went to China back in the day?</div>

              For Syria, peak oil occurred in 1996. The crisis erupted in 2011 when oil consuption exceeded production.
