My closest refinery is about 100 mi. away.

I’d be happier if we had a crude pipeline feeding a local, in town, refinery.

It’s a slap in the face to Biden that he and his minions didn’t see coming. Biden has trashed US influence in the Middle East and ceded it to China in record time.

A lot. But, China doesn't. They love Pedo-Joe, so easy to control.

China and KSA have been cozying up together for a LONG time now. I've seen big SABIC buildings in China for years. You don't even need to have visa to travel between KSA and China.

Where there is ethylene, a chlorine plant is not far away. There must be huge salt deposits somewhere. Salt deposits are in the Eastern province around Jubail where they have a sizable Chlorine plant.
