wdolson -> RE: Shipping oil from US to Oz......yes, again. (3/1/2007 4:33:36 AM)

Things work differently for the US than Japan. The United States hex gets lots of oil and resources you can't ship anywhere. If you drain off LA's oil, more will be shipped there overland to keep industry going. Until the SRA becomes too dangerous for tankers, it's a good idea to take as much oil as you can from there and ship it to Australia. It's not only a shorter haul, but if you drain down the stored oil at Palembang, that will delay Japan a little bit when they take it. The production at Palembang is so high that it will only be a week or two's interruption for Japan after capture, but every bit helps. Bill
