re: Forbes Editorial: America Produces The Most Oil. So Why Are Gas Prices Surging?
Posted by RanchoLaPuerto on 3/24/26 at 7:55 am to ragincajun03
California is importing huge amounts of gasoline from overseas.
It is losing refineries. There is almost pipeline capacity in. And you can’t ship direct from the Gulf Coast because of the Jones Act.

Seems like high gasoline cost would drive down the price. Looking at the 250 class.
Good time?

I was born on a Sunday. By Thursday I had me a job.
I plan to work as long as I can. I’ll shift to something more beneficial, and I am very aware that I need to get out of the way so younger folks can work. So I’ll take a job nobody wants.

Probably 5 years out minimum if I had to guess
That's exactly what I thought.
Also, it is showing a capacity of 168,000 BOPD. That would be an increase of less than 1% of all US refining capacity.

Partners in India and their largest privately held energy company, Reliance, made a "tremendous" investment in the project, according to Trump.
Apparently John Calce is heading up the "America First" group that is leading it.

If AI can do what I do, it should. I doubt very seriously it can.

Private equity buyout
Some major firms are looking to sell out to PE. A problem is ethical rules that say lawyers cannot share profits from legal work with non-lawyers. But I think they are finding ways around that.
Incidentally, I ran into a surgeon from the Northeast who sold out to PE. He hung around for about a year but then cashed in his chips. Once he did, the deal went south fast.

Lafayette.
Working and waiting for my second son with my first wife.
Professionally, my trajectory was upward. Relationally my marriage was shitty. As Buffet once said, “On top of all that I got married to early/Cost me much more than a ring.” But I got my sons out of it, and I’d pay the price again 100 times for that.
