The projected growth of Western Canadian crude oil production is comprised of predominately heavy crude oil. This makes the USGC refineries, with their substantial heavy oil processing capabilities, a key target market for exports from Western Canada. Table 1 shows the volume of Canadian exports of heavy barrels to the US by destination and by type for the year 2014.3 Table1: Canadian Exports to the US by Destination and Type, 2014 (Volume - bbl/d)

Canadian exports of heavy barrels enter the US via pipeline, rail and water. The total existing capacity of major existing crude oil pipelines exiting the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) is 3,792 thousand b/d, while the total proposed additional pipeline capacity is 3,645 thousand b/d. In 2014, crude by rail deliveries of Canadian crude to the US was 57,800 b/d. Total US receipts by rail from Canada of crude oil were 51,274 barrels, and USGC (PADD 3) receipts by rail from Canada of crude oil were 21,033 barrels. Due to existing US crude oil export restrictions, most US crude exports are sourced from domestic sources, which are exported only to Canada. However, since April 2014, US crude exports have included some Canadian barrels that were initially sent to the US, and then re-exported to Switzerland, Spain, Italy, and Singapore. These permitted re-exports of small volumes of Canadian crude oil are being assessed as an economically viable export strategy by some Canadian producers. United States Gulf Coast (USGC) Refining Sector The Gulf Coast region is home to more than 50 percent of US refining capacity with fifty-one refineries, holding a capacity of 9.7 million b/d.4 The USGC has a significant heavy oil processing capacity, with most refineries having
Heavy Barrel Competition in the Gulf of Mexico Karen Mascarenhas Introduction Competition for market share is increasing between Canadian and other heavy crude suppliers for access to the United States Gulf Coast (USGC)1 refinery market. This article explores how much of Canadian heavy crude oil is exported to the USGC, current Canadian export capacity, the USGC refining sector, and the competition among its various players. Current Canadian Exports to the US According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), Canada’s exports to the US increased by 306,000 barrels per day (b/d) (12 percent) in 2014, despite a 393,000 b/d (5 percent) decline in US total foreign imports. Canada exported 2.9 million b/d with nearly all of this volume being exported to the US. In 2014, Canadian oil made up nearly 30 percent of US crude oil imports, and that share is expected to grow over the years to come. Figure 1 shows the increase in Canadian crude oil and bitumen export dollars from 2000 to 2014.2 Figure 1: Canadian Crude Oil and Bitumen Exports (dollars x 1,000,000)

the capacity to process heavy, high sulphur crude oil. This makes the USGC an ideal target market for growing supplies of Western Canadian heavy crude oil supplies outside of traditional markets for Canadian exports such as the US Midwest, which refines more than half of total Canadian exports to the US. In the past two years, refiners have taken advantage of the shale era boom in US domestic crude production. With new infrastructure including pipelines, Gulf Coast refineries have become a favoured destination for both new domestic and Canadian production. Figure 2 shows the growth in USGC refinery utilization and capacity over the past ten years.5 Figure 2: Gulf Coast (PADD III) Refinery Utilization and Capacity (Thousand Barrels Per Day)

Table 2 provides a list of USGC refineries and their capacities. The Louisiana Gulf Coast Refining District has a capacity of 3,654,800 b/d, while the Texas Gulf Coast Refining District has a capacity of 4,550,476 b/d. The total USGC capacity is 8,205,276 b/d, which makes up around 46 percent of total US capacity.6

Some of these USGC refineries retain heavy crude supply arrangements or joint ventures with various companies or countries. For example, with a capacity of 610,000 b/d, the Port Arthur refinery in Texas, operated by Motiva, is partnered with Shell/Saudi Aramco in a joint venture agreement.7 Imports to United States Gulf Coast/PADD III Canadian heavy crude oil competes with oil from various countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Venezuela are the top three suppliers of foreign-sourced crude oil to the USGC, accounting for 66 percent of total crude imports in 2014. Figure 3 shows the heavy crude oil (sweet and sour) major imports into the USGC. While imports of Canadian and Saudi Arabian oil have increased, imports from Colombia and Mexico have decreased in the past five years. Mexico sent 539,000 barrels of heavy crude a day to USGC refineries in August 2015, down from 725,000 for that month in 2014. Venezuelan shipments of heavy crude to USGC refineries fell to 699,000 b/d in 2014 from 823,000 b/d in 2012.8

The largest supplier of crude into the Houston Enbridge ECHO terminal is PEMEX, the Mexican national oil company that discounts its Maya crude to compete with Canadian producers. However, price and availability are not the only considerations. The quality of crude is also an important factor in determining access to the USGC refineries. Blending of crude streams from different sources complicates the analysis, as Canadian oil sands and Venezuelan crude can be mixed with lighter blends to create medium crude feedstocks. Crude supplies into Houston refineries used to be mostly waterborne imports, but rising US and Canadian production, along with new pipelines, have increasingly been replacing these overseas imports. In July 2015, crude delivered by pipelines (developed since 2012) accounted for approximately 55 percent of Houston supply, and waterborne imports decreased to 0.8 MMb/d.9 USGC refiners are currently faced with a logistical issue due to the fact that refineries were built decades ago when crude quality was expected to get heavier and sourer. However, new crude supplies from domestic shale basins are light or ultra-light and sweet. This begs the question to USGC refineries of how they will handle these new supplies, and what it might mean for Canadian and other heavy crude suppliers. For the most part, light crude imports into the USGC have decreased, as they have been replaced by domestic supplies from shale. Imports of light crude to the USGC fell from about 400 Mb/d in early 2010 down to a trickle by the end of 2013. According to Thomson Reuters trade flow data, USGC crude oil imports have fallen steadily since 2011 dropping to 3.2 million b/d in 2014. As shown in Figure 4, light crude imports account for most of the drop in import volumes, primarily grades from West
Africa, as these volumes are being offset by domestic US crudes.10 Figure 4: USGC Crude Imports by type
Source: Thomson Reuters trade flow data
Medium and heavy crude imports fell over the same period from an average of 1.4 MMb/d in 2010 and 2011 to 1.0 MMb/d in 2014 and 0.9 MMb/d through May 2015. Overall, imports of medium and heavy crude have been more resistant to displacement, because many USGC refineries are configured to process mostly medium and heavier crude. US refiners will continue to face changing supply and demand conditions in the upcoming year with changes to infrastructure, refinery capacity, crude oil price differentials based on quality, and policy decisions. The forthcoming CERI study will discuss the current suppliers of heavy barrels to the USGC market, while considering scenarios of the global heavy crude market. It will also forecast available crude exports out of Western Canada to the PADD regions and re-exports off the USGC, in addition to estimating netbacks for various modes of transport. Endnotes 1The USGC/PADD 3 region includes the six states of Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas. 2Statistics Canada.

B1: World Petroleum Supply and Demand Balance (million barrels per day)
Notes: 1. Totals for OECD and non-OECD supply include net refining gains; specific regions/groupings within each do not. 2. OPEC demand is an estimate based on
historical annual data. 3. Balance for World equals global stockbuilds (+) and stockdraws (-) for crude oil and petroleum products and miscellaneous gains and loss-
es. Regional surpluses (+) and deficits (-) are balanced through net-imports and stock changes in the short-term, and net-imports in the longer term. Supply includes
crude oil, condensates, NGLs, oil from non-conventional sources and processing gains. Demand is for petroleum products.

C1: US Petroleum Supply and Demand Balance (million barrels per day)
Notes: 1. Does not balance because of unaccounted for crude oil. Regional surpluses (+) and deficits (-) are balanced through net-imports/transfers and stock chang-
es in the short-term, and net-imports/transfers in the longer term. 2. As of most recent month. Supply includes crude oil, condensates, NGLs, oil from non-
conventional sources and processing gains. Demand is for petroleum products. Source: EIA Petroleum Supply Monthly.

Geographical Specifications
1. The World: OECD is comprised of countries from three regions: North America (Canada, Mexico, US); Europe (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republ ic,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak
Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK); and Asia-Pacific (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea). OPEC is comprised of Persian Gulf (Iran,
Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) and non-Persian Gulf countries (Algeria, Indonesia, Libya, Nigeria, Venezuela). Non-OECD is
comprised of countries from three regions: Former Soviet Union (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan, Moldova, Russia,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan); Asia (including non-OECD
Oceania); and non-Asia (Africa, Middle East, Latin America, and non-
OECD Europe). 2. United States: East (PADD I) – New England
(Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island,
Vermont); Central Atlantic (Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia) and Lower Atlantic (Florida,
Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia). Mid
-West (PADD II) – Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South
Dakota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. South-Central (PADD III) – Alabama,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas. North-West
(PADD IV) – Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming. West
(PADD V) – Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon,
Washington.
3. Canada: East is comprised of Ontario, Manitoba, Quebec and the
Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova
Scotia, and Prince Edward Island). West is comprised of Alberta, British
Columbia, Saskatchewan and the northern territories (NorthWest
Territories, Nunavuut, and Yukon).
Additional Notes
1. Petroleum and oil refer to crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs),
whereas crude oil refers to its namesake and field condensates.
Condensates derived from natural gas processing plants are classified as
NGLs. 2. The spot price is for immediate delivery of crude oil or refined
products at a specific location. Spot transactions are generally on a cargo
by cargo basis. In contrast, a futures price is for delivery of a specified
quantity of a commodity at a specified time and place in the future. 3.
Crude oil sold Free-On-Board (FOB) is made available to the buyer at the
loading port at a particular time, with transportation and insurance the
responsibility of the buyer. Crude oil sold Cost-Insurance-Freight (CIF) is
priced at a major destination point, with the seller responsible for the
transportation and insurance to that point. A “Delivered” transaction is
similar to a CIF transaction, except the buyer in the former pays based on the quantity and quality ascertained at the unloading port, whereas in a CIF
transaction, the buyer accepts the quantity and quality as determined at the loading port. 4. Processing gain is the volume of which refinery output is
greater than crude oil inputs. The difference is due to the processing of crude oil products, which in total have a lower specific gravity than crude oil. 5.
Unaccounted for crude oil reconciles the difference between crude input to refineries and the sum of domestic production, net imports/exports, stock
changes and documented losses (in the U.S.). 6. Totals may not equal the sum of their parts in the statistical tables due to rounding.
