13 Ownership of U.S. refineries to change North American refineries changing hands amid changing North American crude supply regime Refinery Old Owner New Owner Ownership changes should be anticipated for several key U.S. & Canadian refineries that represent a combined 1.7 million barrels per day of crude distillation capacity. This presents a material opportunity for the North American domestic oil production industry to capture market share from importers. Changes in light crude refinery ownership will likely trigger changes in light crude supply relationships. Crude supply changes will likely be seen at the Come-by-Chance & Citgo Lemont refineries if sale transactions close. As new rail, pipeline & marine logistics relieve regional bottlenecks & as supply ramps inland & offshore, we expect crude-on-crude competition between U.S. & Canadian grades. Crude slate changes will likely be most notable at light oil refineries that gain access to crude options from multiple light tight oil plays or upgraders. If & when new owners take over PdVSA s shares in the 4 heavy high-acid crude refineries listed below, they could seek new flexibility & access to run a higher slate of discounted Canadian heavy crude oil.

PADD 5, 330 Mbbl/d, 9% A review of the regional data shows little surprise. PADD 2, Easy access & refinery coker project completions & 1,109 operations drove PADD 2 imports upward at a 16% Mbbl/d, 29% growth rate.

On the West Coast, the 2013 heavy import rate of 324 Mbbl/d beat the 2012 rates by 3%. PADD 5 refiners gave back that gain & more this year in 2014 to date. The available data through May data shows PADD 5 heavy crude imports sank 18% to 266 MMbb/d in a period when imports as a whole of heavy crude into the U.S. as a whole sank 4.5% below the 2013 full year numbers.
