EIA: planned capacity additions to US crude oil pipeline infrastructure should relieve Cushing bottleneck

Green Car Congress

According to an analysis by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), planned additions over the next two years to the US crude oil pipeline infrastructure should relieve the bottleneck at Cushing, Oklahoma which has been caused by the oversupply of oil resulting from the growth of crude oil production in the US mid-continent and Canada.

BNL team devises new method to boost oil accumulation in plant leaves; implications for biofuel production

Green Car Congress

Researchers at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) have developed a new method to increase significantly the amount of oil accumulated in plant leaves, which could then serve as a source for biofuel production. This work provides a very promising platform for engineering oil production in a non-genetically modified way.
