What do you think is in the SPR...gasoline?

No. Why?

It's replacing the crude that is (temporarily, we hope) not coming in from
the Gulf oil platforms that have been displaced or destroyed.

You don't get it. There is more loss of refining capacity along the Gulf,
than loss of production capacity in the Gulf. There is an EXCESS of crude
supply along the Gulf.

Really not sure who doesn't get it. When demand exceeds supply, prices
go up and the price of crude has been on a skyrocket.

The process is sequential - crude to refining to distribution. If any
single step is broken, output stop. The AP reports the Coast Guard says
20 oil rigs and platforms are missing in the Gulf of Mexico. Unless they
were drilling for ice cream, methinks there will soon be a crude oil
shortage.

But crude HASN'T skyrocketed. Watching CNBC shows that crude is currently at
68.85 which isn't THAT much higher than it was last week. Crude hasn't gone
up (much), but the refining it has.

The post you cut says there is an excess of crude, but the price
increases over the last few months refute that unless the laws of supply
and demand have gone sour. Today's prices may be the lull before the
storm until the full extent of Kartina is known.

There is a reason why crude is backing down now....it is because people are
starting to figure out that.the ONLY customers for crude are refineries.

It is thinking like yours that keeps me in business.

The LOOP system is offline due to power requirements. Once power is
restored and suitable destination is available the supertankers can
start offloading. That suppliments offshore production, does nothing for
increasing refining capacity...
