Most diesel refineries are on the east coast and will be shut down by October. Someone in the business said a chemical necessary to the process will be gone by then due to “supply chain issues.” I do know that that was one of the things the railroads were going to quit shipping.
Sorry I don’t have more substantial information. I don’t suppose it will be easy to get any sauce for this. If anyone has a relative or someone they know in the business it would be great to get more information.
There was a video a few months ago talking about diesel additives needed to make the fuel not being produced. So what was on hand, in refinement, and already delivered is all that will be available for up to a year.
Keep in mind most backup power generators are also diesel, millitary also diesel, tractor trailers, contruction equipment, trains etc.
This is a shut down of everything without diesel.
My point exactly!
