I literally linked my source. It's less than 7 minutes long. It's not that refineries are idle, it's that we have to import the heavy crude to keep them producing. Heavy crude went from 12% of imports to 70% as of 2025. The most relevant graphs, if you really can't stomach 7 minutes of video, are shown from 3:30 - 4:30ish in the video. And again, record production levels of shale oil is producing LIGHT crude. The information you're seeking has already been provided to you.
