These don't count as new refineries. Some complain we haven't has a new refinery in twenty years or whatever, but capacity has been growing all along.

The big plants continue to expand but the US is still below the bbls/day capacity that existed in 1970. IE: Amoco Sugar Creek in KCMO, Conoco at Wrenshall, MN and several smaller plants in OK/KS have been shut down.
