Just confirmed with Grok that one one of the best uses of heavy Venezuelan oil is to mix it with the ultra light condensate that comes from Iranian gas fields. The blend can be calibrated for many different refinery types.
Iran can’t stop recovering the condensate with the gas, which is required to power their grid; so, even though their oil is restricted from world market they have to bring it up to the atmosphere where it commences to degrade.
Iran now has a number of floating oil tankers being used as storage vessels, and where the oil is gradually going bad if not used in, I believe, the next few months or so.
I’m sure the Dealmaker in Chief is well aware of this oppportunity.
Yep....refill the strategic oil reservoir...it needs heavy crude,,,,Biden depleted it..to temporary reduce gas prices.
