Thanks. I was using 30,000 gallons per car, so I was a bit conservative on the numbers, either way it is a lot of money for BNR/Buffet.
I know of no refinery or other facility that has the capacity to load or unload 1500 cars every day. There would have to be some very large discharge tanks on the unload end to accomodate the arrivals.
With the heavy gravity of this oil, the cars might have to be steamed overnight, so add four or five days of product at the off-load.
Think about the jam-up of 7500 asphalt capable jumbos... Yike !
