Oil Unions: Cut Keystone Pipeline
- Thread starter mentalfloss

Ah, well there you go. Just like all the oil companies do. Some product will be sold domestically and some internationally.
How ironic, afterall, Pammy was with Tommy Lee and according to all accounts, she may be the poster child for that kind of cruelty.
I am happy that we are buying Candian oil. I'm sort of surprised that some Canadians aren't as much.
For now the cheapest to refine, light sweet crude will continue to be used for domestic use. Heavy oil makes for lovely diesel and jet fuel though.
Some are saying it's much wiser to use that petrol to develop value added resources first, instead of just shipping oil to another country. It also has a detrimental effect on jobs.
And then there is a legitimate environmental concern for both countries as well.
Lastly, it prolongs our dependency on a non-renewable resource - the major use of which is to drive cars - and we already have a viable alternative for that.
With all of the economic unions in play today, I am a little surprised that Canada and the US don't do something more aggressive in terms of oil/gas... Our own little North American OPEC is you will.
I think most of us are, it's just we would like to get some value added as well. They've been closing refineries in Que. and I believe one farther East..................seems like a bassakwards way of going about things.
You know more than I about this biz... but I do know we use a lot of diesel and jet fuel.
I say formalize the process and play the same game as the ME... Start closing the gap between WTI and Brent and you'll see an automatic increase in price.
That's an expensive way to go
I was referring to physical products like plastics, not refined oil. At least that's the gist from what I understood of the article.
We need more plastic? CCRL already refines finer than any other in Nor Am. Everything from paint to pills comes out of that puppy.
Black Adder sucks. I got your quote bout pumping over long distances. Was just askin bout the feasibility of ........etc.
Flossy indeed. fukk you.
