RE:U.S. oil refiners raise concerns about quality of crude ship- WHAT a HIT PIECE from Reuters !
- AS IF CHEVRON and VALERO don't have the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS for Western Candain Select (WCS) and Access Western Blend (AWB) crude oil blends
- the BITUMEN HEAVY Canadian crude oils are HIGH-SULPHUR and HIGH-ACIDITY but are GREAT at PRODUCING
HIGH-ENERGY DISTILLATES (diesel, jet-fuel, home heating oil etc.) which is WHY the crude oul refiners PREFER THEM
- on top of that, they DON'T MIND PAYING DISCOUNTED PRICES for the HEAVY OILS
