We have direct access to refineries and can supply refined petroleum such as A1 Jet Fuel, Diesel 10ppm EN590 & D6 Virgin Fuel oil. For anybody in this industry, we are offering at low-rate costs and direct-to-buyer. If anybody is interested please let us know.

Colorado lawmakers are proposing some ozone reduction measures, including requiring "oil and gas drilling operations to “pause” during the traditional summer high-ozone season, from about May to October, in order to limit leaks of ozone-causing chemicals." What effect would this have on gas prices in Colorado? Would it be immediate or delayed? Would Suncor, which operates a refinery in Denver, see higher profits? Thanks!

Just curious as an outsider. I'm talking about big companies buying petroleum. Do they have a trusted vendor they work with or do they send RFPs to a bunch of vendors to see who can give them the best price?

Hi everyone!

I'm gonna have a job shadowing/externship/coffee chat in a couple days with some Electrical, Instrumentation and Process control, and Reliability Engineers in an oil refinery.

This is pretty much my first experience in the field as a student (I only have some ELEC and a bit of control theory background).

Therefore I've been doing my research about the field and how those areas are applied in a refinery.

However, I wanted to ask you guys if you have any ideas of cool questions to ask to have a more interesting talk with the experts, be it either directly related to the topic or even if it takes a bit more of a tangent.

Have a great day and thanks in advance!

hello there,

i'm a graduation student and currently doing a project about the price of petroleum, what affect it (2018-2022) and geopolitics.

my project is going to analise the price of petroleum from 2018 to 2022. it look like a good 4 years to understand how the price is affected during turbulent times, from a market standpoint and a geopolitical standpoint. 2018 the price was kind of "normal", then the pandemic comes and with it recession, the price goes below zero, that is some interesting fact to analise, and then the russia ukrain war which is also interesting to understand and to talk about.
the project will be mostly bibliographic, so i need as much as good material as i can get, papers, data, etc... (i understand that this is a place that many know about the subject so fell free to talk about, if you want to)

any help will be much appreciated. thanks in advance

Help me understand this folks. If I’m wrong, please correct me. I spent 8 years working at an oil refinery in the blending department so I’d like to think I have a good idea on California fuel specs. If it’s labeled diesel #2, than it’s at least 95% petroleum based diesel with maybe up to 5% biodiesel blended in. If it’s labeled B20, that’s a 20% biodiesel blend. If it’s R95 (common at the 76 stations here), that’s a renewable based/biomass fuel. That is NOT “biodiesel”. Biodiesel gels up in cold temp much sooner than petrol based diesel, R95 does not. R95 is chemically the same as petrol based diesel, biodiesel is not.

So how do these labels make sense? Am I buying D2? R95? Or B20+? I’ve recently seen them at all the Chevron stations around, but no where else. My refinery made pure diesel #2, so this is throwing me off. My truck can take B20 but I’d rather not run it. The stickers seem to be a gas stations “we’ll buy whatever and mix it all up” sign.

Hello Everyone. I just recently partnered up with sellers agents of refineries and oil/gas fields. We supply crude oil, jet fuel, D2, D6 virgin, etc at very competitive and almost wholesale like prices. I got in so I could help many countries and companies around the world fill in the gaps that Russia has created in the oil/gas market. I have had trouble finding buyers tho. I’ve been utilizing linkedin but finding that it’s not the most reliable source. Do any of you have recommendations of the best ways to find buyers?

Dow stock dives after KeyBanc says ‘petrochemical recession is upon us’
