California Losing 10% of Gas Production This Year. What Are the Options Ahead | Skip York

California’s refinery network is shrinking. Phillips 66 is shutting down its LA refinery, and more closures may follow. But what happens when we lose domestic refining capacity with no clear plan to replace it? Skip York, Chief Energy Strategist at Turner Mason & Company and Nonresident Fellow for Energy and Global Oil at Rice University’s Baker Institute, joins California Insider to explain how this shift could leave the state more dependent on foreign imports. We explore what California’s fuel future could look like, why state-run refineries may not be the solution, and whether a quiet policy alternative—state-backed fuel importing—offers a more practical path. 📩 Email Us YOUR Story: [email protected] 👉 Read California News: https://californiainsider.com/ Views expressed in this video are the opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of California Insider. -------------------- 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Watch our Documentary "Leaving California" at https://leavingcamovie.com/ 🟡 Sign up for our newsletter: https://californiainsider.com/email-signup-page 💟 Support us: https://donorbox.org/california-insider-2024-donation -------------------- #California #CaliforniaNews #CaliforniaInsider #GasPrices #FuelPrices #OilIndustry #Refinery
