Скачать или смотреть California Governor Under Fire as Gas Crisis Spreads to Arizona | Patricia Morrison

#EnergyCrisis #GasPrices #CaliforniaEnergy
California’s refining crisis has officially crossed state lines, triggering a regional energy emergency across the Southwest. With the sudden shutdowns of Phillips 66 and Valero facilities, nearly 300,000 barrels per day of production have vanished from the market.
Combined with the closure of the San Pablo Bay pipeline, which cut off an additional 100,000 barrels of crude, Arizona is now facing severe fuel supply constraints. These disruptions are creating a ripple effect that could push gas prices to record highs in neighboring states.
In this video, we break down:
Why the Phillips 66 and Valero closures are happening now.
The impact of the San Pablo Bay pipeline shutdown on regional logistics.
Why Arizona is uniquely vulnerable to California’s energy policy and infrastructure shifts.
What this means for fuel costs and supply stability across the Southwest in the coming months.
The situation is evolving rapidly—stay informed on how these production cuts affect your wallet and the broader energy landscape.

Arizona drivers are seeing higher prices and supply disruptions at the pump. The cause traces back to California, where several major refineries have closed or announced closures. But the full story is more complicated than any single headline suggests.

In this video, I examine what's actually happening with refining capacity (284,000 barrels/day lost), why it's happening (two competing perspectives), how Arizona is affected (30% of supply from California), possible scenarios for the next 6-12 months, and what this tells us about America's energy transition.

This isn't about assigning blame. It's about understanding a complex situation that affects millions of people.
