Last number I heard from him was at least 13 refineries are down, and I don't know if that is BP affiliated or not. Regardless, it is bad.
    Wouldn't you expect oil prices to go up in that case?

    I don't claim to know anything about how the oil industry works, but it seems if there was really a serious problem, oil prices would have gone up today, not gone down. Or is that too logical for such a huge industry?

          Too logical. Demand has been failing for a while, so the supply is getting bigger as we switch to different fuels and using less. The speculators are the ones who set the price of oil and when they are selling it, the price goes down. Oil really doesn't effect the price after it has already been bought. The problem is that they can't turn the oil into gas right now, so the gas supply goes down, so they raise the price.
