I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. Since Japan has no oil of its own, it must purchase and import oil from other countries. Prior to the start of World War II, the United States and other oil producing countries embargoed oil to Japan. One of the reasons Japan went to war was to ensure the continued supply of oil and other commodities. It did this by occupying the oil producing areas of the Netherlands East Indies.
