ISIL controls up to 350,000 barrels per day of pre-war oil production capacity in Iraq and Syria but is only able to produce 50,000 to 60,000 barrels a day, says IHS. That is because of warfare, shut-ins and ISIL’s limited technical capabilities.
ISIL sells its oil by transporting it in trucks through smuggling routes on the Turkish border, IHS reports. The oil is sold for an estimated $40 a barrel, compared to the current $85 per barrel for Dated Brent, the international oil benchmark.

For $45/barrel, there are a lot of people who would deal with the Devil himself.
We should bomb every bit of oil infrastructure in ISIS controlled areas, without exception.
What could be done with a few A-10 gun runs....
Just look for the sign Welcome to Turkey.
