      BBG’s highlights:

      >China’s refiners are looking for alternative oil sources, including Canada, after being cut off from Venezuelan crude.

      >Chinese inquiries about Canadian oil supplies have increased, with processors considering Canadian grades as a replacement for Venezuela’s Merey crude.

      >Canadian crude is more expensive than Venezuelan crude, but its shorter transportation time and more freight options may make it a viable alternative for Chinese refiners.

      So much for the doomers waving their arms around and saying „wahhhhhh Americans now own Venezuelan oil so they’ll stop buying from Canada“.

      It seems like Canadian energy has no issue attracting foreign buyers after all.

      And how does Canada manage to actually physically transport this oil to China? A new pipeline, that’s right. The same one BC and Eby fought tooth and nail to stop.

      It would not surprise me to see PetroChina as a supporter for a new oil pipeline going through BC. They own 15% of LNGCanada so they aren’t strangers to investing in pipelines in Canada, Carney is visiting next week, and the Venezuela situation does mean they might have more appetite for Canadian Oil.

      Great, now the US and their „Donroe“ doctrine will be aimed north towards us next

      Exactly as expected! Global oil consumption remains unchanged regardless of the takeover of Venezuela oil. Former buyers of Venezuelan oil will need to source alternatives which creates an opportunity for Canada. The key now is expanding access to additional markets! Pipelines!!

      I don’t know anything about this business. But oil is still needed, and there will always be buyers.
