So why do you claim they have to import?

They have refinery capacity of about 137 million barrels per year and consume about 60 million barrels per year of refined products. Even with an extremely low operating capacity margin they produce that amount easily. Which is why they are a net exporter.

Because I didn’t know they had six refineries.

Duh. My error.
