    Z, 

    Is there any quantitative measure of the  crude oil fractions & NGL’s consumed  by the the US  Petrochemical Industry and or exported from the US?

    Petrochemicals( including plastics)  appear to be an area of of significant near term growth …..is there a way to tack them?

    re 3 – we track oil refining as you know and then total crude product exports and on a more delayed basis NGL exports which have been jumping faster than the crudeexports.  I'm out of pocket tonight but will put together a chart in the morning on the NGLs.
