Which is why I asked you about a specific date you had in mind.

Actually, it was. Yes, the refinery issue in Indiana is keeping prices higher than they normally would be. And, the situation in California is still no where near normal. So, add those two together and you get higher than normal average pricing relative to crude.

There are a few other items which significantly contribute to the higher than usual price delta.

Right..the "unexpected repairs" needed at a refinery. Which come just at the time when oil is crashing....and is expected to last for the remainder of the summer driving season....

so ****ing convenient...

Convenient for who, exactly? Certainly not the refiner.

WHAT? Are you that bad at math? They are getting oil cheaper now than they have in years. The "increased cost" due to the "unexpected repairs" is being passed along to the consumer. Just ****ing wow, Donger.

Pete, when a refinery shutsdown, they aren't refining crude and selling the refined products. So, yes, refiners REALLY don't like shutting down.

It's a partial shutdown. My God, man are you really this naive?

Correct, I hadn't completely read up on the situation:

Prices are expected to continue to rise in the short term, as BP’s refinery in Whiting, Indiana — the largest in the Midwest and seventh-largest in the nation — wrestles with “unscheduled repair work” that shut down the biggest of its three crude distillation units Aug. 8.

So, you are asserting that BP decided to intentionally shutdown the biggest of its three DUs in order to raise prices of the gasoline, correct? In essence, willingly remove more than one third of its refining capacity, as well.

So when all of these refineries wrap up their maintenance and shutdowns, assuming crude maintains its current trade price, will we see a massive fall in gas prices or will it be incremental? Or will it happen at all?

I'm saying that with the oil industry crying over lower oil prices, it' a remarkable coincidence that these "unexpected repairs" come about right at the beginning of yet another sell off in oil that is taking prices to multi-year lows....

I'm sure when BP reports their record profits, this won't be brought up

"Experts" say the price will decline once the refinery is back online. Now of course, that assumes that oil hasn't gone back up in price in the mean time.

No, it really isn't and it goes back to why I asked you about dates. Do you know what time of year it is?
