Crap crude is the latest rage at refineries, they can get deep discounts & hide same in "modern" accounting procedures.

While the market moguls drive up the trading price of the good stuff, these guys make big bucks cooking the crap crude along with the books.

This "Cheap" crude has a high processing cost. High in sulfur, very acidic, lots of erosion, basically shortens the life of any pipe it goes thru. It's cheap only on paper.
