And diesel was climbing before that then it spiked when Ukraine struck Russian refineries.
What was it start the year, after 3.50 years of Ukrainian strikes?

Muh Biden!
Trump is precariously close to reaching Biden’s metrics on several things. I can’t wait for your excuse when that happens. Biden isn’t President anymore people voted him out and Trump in to ‘fix’ these issues and Trump is basically Biden/Kamala Part II on many of them. Welp.

I guess this is a good argument if you ignore the volume of attacks this year vs the previous years
quote:
2022 (The First Strikes)
June 22, 2022: The very first recorded drone strike hits the Novoshakhtinsk refinery in Rostov.
2024 (The "Deep Strike" Campaign Begins)
January–March 2024: Ukraine officially launches its systematic deep-strike campaign, hitting major plants like Ust-Luga, Tuapse, Volgograd, and Ryazan. By March 16, 2024, a major strike on Moscow's largest refinery puts 50% of the capital's fuel at risk.
2025 (The Campaign Escalates)
August 2–24, 2025: A massive surge of over a dozen drone strikes targets facilities heavily across the Ryazan and Volgograd regions.
August 27, 2025: A massive explosion knocks out the main Ryazan refinery unit.
2026 (Daily Bombardments & Extreme Long-Range Strikes)
April 2026: A record month with 21 separate strikes on refineries and export terminals. An April 28 strike forces a 12-million-ton refinery to completely halt operations.
June 16–18, 2026: Extensive drone waves strike the Moscow oil refinery twice, starting massive fires and knocking it offline until 2027.
June 28, 2026: Strike on the Slavyansk oil refinery.
July 1, 2026: Strike on the Ufa refinery near the Ural mountains.
July 6–7, 2026: One of the deepest strikes in history hits the massive Omsk refinery in Western Siberia, roughly 2,500 kilometers from Ukraine.
July 11–12, 2026: Strike on the Syzran oil refinery alongside multiple tankers.
August 1, 2026: Simultaneous strikes on three separate oil refineries in the Bashkortostan republic.
August 6, 2026: Strike on the Yaroslavl refinery.
August 8 & August 11, 2026: Successive strikes knock out the Ilsky and Orsknefteorgsintez refineries.
August 10, 2026: A highly destructive strike hits the Niznekamsk petroleum hub.
September 15, 2026: A fresh wave hits the Syzran refinery in the Samara region again.

Yes. And oil will come down once the Saudis fix their pipeline.
Too bad midterms will be here before that line is at full capacity

Most capacity restored: roughly early to mid-October
Full repair: potentially early to mid-November

It was under $4.
This is from last summer:
quote:
A historic diesel crunch is unfolding across the Atlantic, and traders are scrambling. In the U.S., diesel stockpiles have dropped to their lowest seasonal level since 1996. Over in Europe, futures spreads are widening fast with the prompt premium in northwest Europe spiking to $44 per ton, a level not seen since late 2022 outside of expiry dates. Diesel's share of total oil product output hit just 31.4% last month, according to Energy Aspects well below typical seasonal averages. That's setting off alarm bells in a market that relies on diesel for everything from trucking to heating to industrial machinery.

How is Ukraine affecting an American refinery not having the crude oil to refine into diesel?
They do have the crude. The problem for diesel prices in the USA is 2 fold:
Oil companies are exporting record amount of diesel because of the prices they can get on the global market.
USA refinery utilization rates are almost 100%. They can’t refine more diesel no matter how much crude they can get.

Biden's war.. not Trump's war

Makes no sense that it was a supply problem. With spreads the way they are, a refinery will pay anything for barrels

fricking sucks! What a coincidence Iran didn’t hit it sooner. I still think they have enough outlets to keep supplying Europe. Who knows what is really going on behind the scenes.

They did. Just didn’t do as much damage as this one did.

Well, that's inconvenient for the Blame Trump Panican Brigade.

Maybe Russia should just get tf out of this senseless war they started. Starting this war was reckless.

How is Iran? We don’t rely on the strait of Hormuz for our oil. We have plenty of oil in the US and now Venezuela
Either we are exporting too much or the reason given for shutting down is bullshite. We need to make it where our refineries are fully supplied before any exports go out

Always someone else's fault

How does this affect the US when we don’t import petroleum products from Russia?

Ukraine/Russia def is impacting Diesel, good thing Trump ended that conflict within 24hrs of being in office as promised...
Good Lord, you idiots are broken records.
It's Trump's fault for not ending the war. Not Biden’s for allowing it. Not NATO for starting it. Not Ukraine for attacking refineries. Not Russia for invading. Not the EU for inflamming.
It's all Trump's fault for not being able to stop a war between two foreign countries who don't want to stop fighting.
The sad part is that you don't understand how retarded you sound. You can literally read other people making the same stupid comment, and you still think, "Yep, that's the comment I'm going to make, too."
They call it "derangement" syndrome for a good reason.

We could just out an export control in place. We’d be ok, europstan might not make it the winter.
