Americans should have simply come up with better quality or cheaper oil if they want this. It's supply and demand. Literally economics 101

Would it not just be delivered via the Pacific?

I'm pretty sure US-China trade is done from the Indian ocean, through the Singapore strait and into the South China sea.
