That isn't all you need to know from the article. That's about the amount that fits into a tweet and lacks a lot more context.
For example, the different types of oil and the way US refineries are setup. That's useful context to know more about the situation.
- jhallenworld 5y agoOf course the details are more involved, but the refiners will modify their plants to optimize profits on their own. The time-frame involved could be an issue for sure. What kind of oil is in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve? It could possibly help with the time issue. The tweet-sized post is useful as a counter to the oil company talking points. They like banning Russian imports (eliminating a competitor), but want to link it to expanded drilling and the reinstatement of Keystone XL. Both of these also take time. Yet they say that they can immediately increase production, so I'm not sure the rush for their other requests.
