What types of crude are slated to go down XL and from where Flawssy?

Any idear?

Heavy crude oil, that's the reason they are sending it to Houston, TX one of the very few refineries that can process that sh*t.

So here my question to you, what refinery will it be sent too and will the oil be used for domestic use or be shipped off to a different country.

In short, is it just Big Fat cats making a profit at the expenses of the environment, once again.. or will there be some benefit to the US public for taking this risk. ie. lower fuel prices.

Sorry BOOMer. SK and AB heavy crude is just one of around ten raw and finished products to go down XL.

Sorry about Houston, you have a problem.

The first heavy oil upgrader in North America is in Regina and heavy has been refined here for 75+ years. The fat cats raking it are the people of SK who funded, built and own the upgrader while a second one built right beside the very first one sits awaiting East/West and XL and another will be built when those lines are running.

They are shipping heavy crude south.. so what is the benefit to he US public, if they just ship it back out of the country..

Please, what are the names of the Heavy Crude refiners in Western Canada. Link to your source.

You are misrepresenting the study.

It wasn't comparing the two sources of oil.
The study misrepresents it's self by missing out on 9 other types of products. Did they do that deliberately or they simply have no clue because they didn't bother to educate themselves?

How come you didn't know of diversity of products and sources? If you have the time to dig up and post crap like this, you have the time and ability to know what you are rallying against.

Ohhh goodie. You found a URL. Did you read it? Did you know this pipeline will be carrying American crude and finished products?

If you read anything on that link you'd run across stuff like: "transporting a wide range of hydrocarbon-based liquid products, including crude oil, but also refined products such as gasoline and jet fuel".

All the same misinformed, friction free, slippery as all f-ck bullsh-t.

Regurgitating the same bullsh-t doesn't make it any less bullsh-t.

Why do you keeping gobbling up this bullsh-t?

You enjoy being bullsh-tted?

That's a good boy. You're learning. Next time you run across some ridiculous unreasearch article read it fully then vet it to make sure the claims are within the bounds of reality.

Another thing you need to do is learn everything you can about whatever it is you choose to rally against.

After years of babbling against XL why is it only today that you found out about several raw and finished products from several sources in two countries is going to be piped rather than just oil sands synthetic? Please explain in full son.
