>The last California-bound oil tanker to pass through the Strait of Hormuz since war erupted is at the Port of Long Beach offloading its valuable cargo — 2 million barrels of crude destined to be transformed into gasoline, jet fuel and diesel.

>The New Corolla loaded up in Iraq on Feb. 24 — just days before U.S. and Israeli forces launched attacks on Iran, plunging the region into turmoil and sparking a double blockade of commercial shipping.

>In two weeks, the Hong Kong-flagged tanker will have fully unloaded at the Marathon Petroleum terminal and departed again for distant waters. After that, California must figure out how to replace some 200,000 barrels of oil a day that will no longer be arriving from the Persian Gulf.

>https://archive.is/q2aj1

Remember the toilet paper shortages during COVID? Now imagine what it will be like when freight deliveries stop nationwide because there isn’t enough diesel for trucks.

We are in a situation where everything feels “normal” until it isn’t. The media is obviously not covering how dire the shipping situation is due to the Iranian conflict, but, there’s only so much time before we feel the direct ramifications of the Strait being shut down. Things are about to get wild.

The USA is not about to run out of oil lmao. This is retard bait.

Why can't we just use our own oil? US has plenty. It is California that insists on importing the crude and then shipping it out to China for refinement and then back.

No surely this can’t be. I support Trump through thick and thin. /pol/ said Trannies lost. There must be a mistake we won.

Oh I didn't realize we had an export ban and sufficient refinery capacity to process petroleum for our needs.

He just approved a new pipeline from Canada. Also it's completely correct, we aren't a real country and stopped being one in the 1960s. To go full autarky now, even to just not be reliant on the US, is functionally not possible.

California is going to be a political shitshow for a precautionary tell of why you don't shut dowk all the oil wells.

We're going to need a export ban on oil too

>Remember the toilet paper shortages during COVID? Now imagine what it will be like when freight deliveries stop nationwide because there isn’t enough diesel for trucks.
"We" are not running out of oil, California is. California has crippled oil production and refining in their own state, driving 2/3 of their refiners out in the last 20 years, while also requiring their own special snowflake blends of fuels, while ALSO preventing pipelines to bring those fuels to them from within the #1 oil-producing country in the world (America)
So we're in this hilarious situation where Eco Paradise California is shipping diesel from the other side of the world. Except now the pool's closed

>lol california isn't part of america libtard

ya the 4th largest economy in the world has no impact on the rest of the country or anything. fucking loser retard red states aren't subsidized and kept afloat by their production or anything, they can sink into the ocean for all I care, that would be best for everybody.

goddam trumptards are fucking dumb, if the most developed state in the nation is in trouble, we're all in trouble

Nutbags in BC keep Canada from having good access to the global oil market so they really have to rely on the US to make use of their production.

California's problem is 100% self-caused and can be 100% solved at any time with a penstroke. California does not require a mandate for special snowflake fuel blends that cut it off from the rest of the continent's fuel supply.
All CARB has to do is authorize the same blends of gasoline and diesel that literally every other state uses, and it can begin flowing in immediately. This seems very likely to happen, and will actually be better for Muh Environment than shipping Magic Diesel over from the other side of the world in big oil-burning ships.
In the meantime, retarded Californians will suffer the consequences of their votes.

just like it seems likely the US will "win" the war in iran. keep coping, cali would secede before changing their laws for an orange monke. shipping containers are also by far the most efficient way to move crude around, well at least they were before the retard in chief started an unnecessary war.

Well, they won't be getting far without gas and diesel, so given that they can no longer buy it on the other side of the world and have it shipped over, they might just have to stop banning the same fuel that literally everyone else on the continent uses
Absolutely hilarious that you morons have gluten-free'd yourselves into a fuel crisis while everyone else is completely fine lol

Do you live in California? If you don't, go down to your local gas station. They have gas! And diesel!
California, through CARB, bans the fuel blends that everyone else uses. It's illegal to sell them in California. Since they also chased their entire refining industry out of the state, they must import fuel from overseas. The last tanker of Gulf fuel just arrived in California. There are going to be shortages in California unless CARB suspends their ridiculous ban on ordinary gasoline and diesel.
