Chemical manufacturers of diesel engine additives have declared force majeure and have ceased supply operations to the diesel engine oil manufacturers
This could result in the US having no diesel oil supply until 2023
Key manufacturers of these additives have ceased operations, and diesel oil can apparently no longer be produced in the USA until the necessary chemicals are restored to full supply.
The current supply of diesel engine oil is expected to be wiped out within 4-8 weeks
After that, unless a solution is quickly found, there will be no diesel oil available until some time in 2023
From late August through early 2023, barring some sort of new chemical intervention, diesel fuel will be banned in the United States.
Other engine oil suppliers are already warning about the inventory wipeout
Sinopec is a commercial oil brand that’s available for purchase online
The text on their website says they expect to stock out of diesel oil products in the month of June 2022 and will resume back with inventory in the first quarter of 2023
Refinery maintenance
Many crude oil producers have postponed their planned maintenance in 2020 because of the pandemic
Reduced demand for paraffin and fuel has caused many refineries to carry out maintenance activities, further reducing available capacity
Another source confirms the shortage and rationing of diesel engine oil
A third source has confirmed the situation to me personally, emphasizing that they could only provide one drum because of "diesel engine oil rationing"
At present, we do not know the names of the additive manufacturers that have reportedly declared force majeure
Shortages of diesel fuel and DEF also widely reported
All modern diesel engines require three things to operate: diesel fuel, diesel engine oil, and diesel exhaust fluid
Without any one of these, diesel engines cannot function
Diesel fuel shortages are being reported in Florida, with Flying J gas stations running out along highways in some areas
From "scarcity to non-existent"
Diesel engine oil shortage only adds to the escalating catastrophe hammering trucking and transportation.
Retailers, customers, and distributors are all reporting shortages in diesel engine oil. This is not an imaginary problem, it is a real problem that is so far entirely ignored by the corporate media.
Without diesel engine oil, transportation in the USA grinds to a halt... including trains
Yesterday, my company emailed a representative working for one of our package / transport carriers.
We asked them if they had contingency plans on how they would deal with diesel fuel shortages. Their answer shocked me so deeply that I recorded a short podcast about it.
If the trucks and trains stop running, forget about getting a supply of anything
Without trucks or trains, there will be no food deliveries to grocery stores, no inventory at Wal-Mart, and no lumber at Home Depot.
If this diesel engine oil situation is not somehow resolved, Amazon.com will cease to function because all the package carriers
UPS, Fedex, USPS, etc. - will not be able to move loads via roads or rail.
Sri Lanka is pulling trains off the railways due to the diesel engine oil shortage
Diesel engine oil is running low, and trains are being pulled off the tracks due to a lack of fuel
The current level of engine oil will last about two months, and there is only about 8 weeks of diesel left in the pipeline
About 10 percent of 18-wheeler rigs need to change their oil each week
Assuming the oil change status is evenly distributed across the fleet of transport trucks, starting in late August, about 10% of long-haul trucks will have to be removed from the roads each week due to a lack of diesel engine oil.
Within 10 weeks, unless some new supply is found, nearly 100% of the trucks will be garaged.
