It is a big squeeze in the slurry pumping world right now and as an affect there will not be too much gas, diesel, jet fuel, kerosene, or many other dead dinosaur products so the price of gas will inflate pretty substantially for a while.
    Yeah facilities around the world that have the equipment capable to do the work are limited but they are helping as the oil community always does, it just isn't enough. To put it into perspective, a lead time on a "Hot head" petroleum cracking pump, which is a pump needed to help separate fuel when it is distilled from oil takes about 10 months from the order if everything goes well. This means that everything will be expedited and companies will be able to shave off about 3 months from that time, but that still means 7 months of band-aids and duct tape.
    look into the closed refineries up in western pa, like rouseville pa, oil city, pa and reno, pa.

    they used have the headquarters for Pennzoil, Quaker State, and Wolf's head there, with big refineries and then it all dried up and turned to a ghost town.

    Make Mexico Great Again and they wouldn't be pouring in. Think about that Pablo, keeping it real buddy.

    Got gangs/MS13, Drug and child smuggling? Gotta have law and order, jobs and civil society to make it work. If not the people rush the border to the next best Country. I don't blame them. America can't take in everyone though.

    What a waste of taxpayer money. Spending on sunblockers when there’s perfectly good and working Jewish Space Lasers available
