Are they several refineries within the same company or several companies? Its common to schedule turnarounds (Refinery speak for planned maintenance shutdowns) just prior to the switch in winter/ summer fuel blend change. Often things need to be modified to facilitate that.
Most often the increased cost is a crude oil price increase not a refinery margin increase.
Ditto! SRT---Why not investigate the EPA and the government departments which require the seasonal change to 55 different blends of gasoline or the double refining of diesel to remove sulfur (lower SO2 emissions). All of this while studing the feasibility of using aircraft to inject SO2 at high altitude to reduce global warming which is what happens after a volcanic eruption. :S
