“The repatriation of barrels from Venezuela to the US has been beneficial to the US refining complex because many refineries on the US Gulf Coast were designed or redesigned to process Venezuelan crude. We've been taking Venezuelan crude when the economics make sense, and every day we run models to ensure that we've got...”
“The Western Gateway pipeline will be very consistent, reliable flow to Phoenix, to points in California, to Las Vegas versus relying on imported refined products from the far east.
