Reply #7: all of that oil is not converted to gasoline or diesel is it? [View All]

[madokie]

what percentage of a gallon of crude is actually refined into fuel, that discripancy is going to blow those numbers out of the water aren't they? I wonder how that all breaks down. There is a lot of products that are made from oil with the last of the bunch being asphalt, I believe. Anyways thinks for the info so far and if you have any info to enlighten me on to the ratio of gas/diesel to crude I would forever be indebted to you, just kidding on the last part there. :-)

aren't some of the product from crude sold at a much higher price than gasoline, like naptha for instance, isn't that one of a pletora of by products of the refining process? As you can see I have very little knowledge of this but I do have enough to ask a few questions.

btw, Have a great day and thanks

I want to add: I still think we are getting screwn though, ok.
