Dumb question perhaps but when BPWhiting is down and not making refined products, how do they make any money? Or are you suggesting they have collusion with the other refiners to split the windfall profits?
Are they totally shutdown? And BP is a big company. If they can ship gas from out of state and sell for more here....?
Oil is a huge, entrenched, and connected business, with obscene amounts of money involved. Do you really trust them to NOT play games?
