The list of importing oil companies has some strange entries. It lists Amoco as one that imports from the Middle East, and BP/Phillips as not importing. BP is not affiliated with Phillips, but it bought Amoco in about 1996. This casts doubt on the validity of the list.

Crude oil is a commodity.
I’d be surprised if any given fuel brand was consistently refined from any particular crude source.
Knowledgeable folks on the forum will add more info I’m sure.
