Weak graphic. The two most prominent pieces of info are the name of the oil field and the country where it’s located - probably the two least interesting things. Switch the hierarchy to highlight number of barrels, specific field location, owner of the field (and nation of the owner), total barrels produced, expected number of barrels left, age of field, biggest customers of a field, etc.

Not only that, but the quality of the oil. The bunker crude from Venezuela costs a ton to refine down to a usable state. Whereas Texan and Saudi oil is a much higher grade.
