Notes
Refiners buy crude
oil
and convert it into useable end products:
Gasoline
Kerosene
Jet Fuel
Plastics
The
refining
industry is very competitive and somewhat insensitive to the
price
of
oil
The end products it produces are
commodities
that are interchangeable
When the
price
of
oil
goes up or down, typically the prices for end products move in tandem
