U.S. gross refinery inputs declined in 2019, and weekly gross inputs have fallen significantly so far in 2020 (4/1/2020)

U.S. gross refinery inputs averaged 17.0 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2019, down from the record high of 17.3 million b/d set in 2018, but still the second-most on record (based on data going back to 1985). The drop in 2019 is the first time since 2009 that annual gross refinery inputs decreased from the previous year. The lower annual refinery runs in 2019 were the result of a sharp decrease in refinery runs during the February–March maintenance season and because of the Philadelphia Energy Solutions (PES) fire and refinery outage in June (Figure 1).

1. Foundation Work: This is the preparations which are made before the scam is put in motion, including the elaboration of the plan, the employment of assistants and so forth.

2. Approach: Is the manner of getting in touch with the scammers victim — often most elaborately and carefully prepared.

3. Build Up: Rousing and sustaining the interest of the victim, rousing his emotions, showing him the chance of profit and filling him so full of anticipation and cupidity that his judgment is warped and his caution thrown away.

4. Pay-off or Convincer: An actual or apparent paying of money by the conspirators to convince the victim and settle doubts by a cash demonstration.

5. The Hurrah: This is like the dénouement in a play and no scam or con scheme is complete without it. It is a sudden crisis or unexpected development by which the victim is pushed over the last doubt or obstacle and forced to act. Once the hurrah is sprung the victim is clay in the scammer's hands or there is no game.

6. The In-and-In: This is the point in a scam act where the conspirator may put some of his money into the deal with that of the victim; first, to remove the last doubt that may tarry in the gull's mind.
