    Interesting. So the cars you make can't run on the oil you harvest.
    Could cars be built to run on refined oil you harvest? I mean, some cars run on waste chip fat. Or perhaps I should ask, could refineries be built for your car production?
    Will your light crude oil run generators, or oil heating systems? Or does it have to be mixed with heavy crude first.

    Thank goodness we invented the battery/electric car around 1940 or the international petro-chemical industry might still be taking advantage🤪

      No it has to be refined first - although the light crude produced in some Western Siberian fields could run a diesel engine once the parafins are removed.

      Light crudes produced in North America are used primarily for aviation fuel, motor oils and petrochemical production.

          For AC,

          What do we know as to the reason why certain types of oil are found in the ground in different geographies? Is it simply a matter of what kind of dinosaurs died in these locations? I’m sure there’s more to it but what do you know?

            Probably more of a time-in-the-oven thing. Pressure, temperature, and time.

                  You know, I think I'd rather pay $10 for a dozen eggs, but hey, that's just me.

                    Interestingly egg prices have crashed since. The early Trump days. Lowest in 10 years.

                      And that's all down to him- another spectacular victory. Obviously, the gas prices are Joe Biden's fault.
