Podcast summary created with Snipd AI

Quick takeaways

  • Around 40% of what is considered oil is actually comprised of substances that are not petroleum products, such as natural gas liquids (NGL)
  • The changing nature of oil production in the United States has led to a reliance on importing heavier oil from other countries to meet refinery needs

Deep dives
