Meanwhile, keep watching for shortage reports, because we should start seeing some sneak in this week, if our doom-o-meter is calibrated correctly.

Someone asked this on another forum :

Quote:
We use roughly 1/2 of oil consumption for motor vehicle fuels of all types. The other 1/2 includes home heating oil, boiler fuel for other buildings and powerplants, lubricants, industrial feed stock, and other purposes. Anyone have a breakdown of what percentage of oil use goes to each category?


Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks! Smile
