U.S. To Receive 3 Million Barrels Of Venezuelan Crude Oil In February
By Julianne Geiger - Feb 17, 2023, 11:30 AM CST

The United States is on track to receive nearly 3 million barrels of crude oil from Venezuela this month, according to shipping documents seen by Reuters.

Chevron is on track to ship 100,000 barrels of Venezuelan crude oil per day into the United States as part of a license it received from the U.S. Treasury Department that gives it a limited pass to move sanctioned oil, after a three-year ban.

Since obtaining its license, Chevron has exported Venezuelan crude oil for use in its Pascagoula, Mississippi, refinery, and has sold some to Phillips 66 and Valero Energy, shipping documents show—both in the United States.

Chevron and Valero refineries on the Gulf coast have the separators necessary for removing the high sulfur content of sour Venezuelan crude.  Not so for Chinese refineries who really don't care about destroying the environment.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Those refineries could have been processing Canadian Tar Sands crude, but some assh*le stopped that pipeline...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yep.  How's that new refinery in ND coming along?  Haven't heard anything for a while.

They switched it to make biofuels.

I had high hopes for a topping facility because we use a lot of diesel up here between the oilfield, trucking, and farming. I want this state to be self sufficient in every way possible.

Oh joy.  We have destroyed our energy industry to make communist regimes richer. 

And you thought the movie Idiocracy was extreme, perhaps fantasy!   LOL  Little did you know that movie would be surpassed by many degrees of lunacy!!!
