Bend over and lube up, fellas

Price of gas is about to go through the roof. Brother works for a large chemical corporation that has many facilities in Texas. His expertise is in fiberglass, but his company deals in petroleum and refineries. When the storm hit Texas, all of the refineries had gone to hot standby instead of full shutdown. So basically, everything froze with valves open, chemicals in the lines. The whole situation is a clusterfuck and every single refinery is down. And due to the storm, they were not even able to get into the facilities to assess the damage until this weekend. It will take weeks for them to get up and running. He is predicting the price of gas to hit $3.50-$4.00 per gallon or more. If you need gas, go get it NOW! It's going to be bad for a while.

MauldinT, where are you???


They'll tap the reserve Trump built up if that's the case.


Feb 21, 2021, 9:15 PM

One of the moves I was all for when Trump did it even though the left thought it was a bad move. Never understood why it's bad to buy low when you know you'll need it eventually. I didn't think he'd need it in a year, but whatever..

Isn't the reserve oil, not refined gas?***

So, the refineries are stupid?


Feb 21, 2021, 9:51 PM

Why would the refinery prep be any different than for that of a hurricane? I get 'standby', but...isn't that also done for 'canes? While some supply drop is expected due to lack of refining last week, the math doesn't make a lot of sense...other than motivation to jack prices. If an entire industry lacks a sensible response to a temp drop...well...

What am I missing?

"In 1981, Mikkos made his only on screen appearances on General Hospital when he was the mastermind behind a plot to obtain world domination by holding the world at ransom through the use of a weather machine that could create a severe snowstorm. He claimed it was for a utopia, a perfect world. He never allowed anyone to see his experiments."

Futures are $1.80 per gallon (add your taxes and profit to get pump price). In GA we're about 75 cents over wholesale which aligns perfectly since we've gone from $2.19 to $2.55 in the last two weeks.

Biden has done more for oil prices than the Texas storm. He's starting a trade war with Canada.
