Just because they sold more barrels than ever before doesn't mean there isn't a shortage. The simple equation of using more than is produced would qualify as a shortage. Perhaps when you hear the word shortage you think that oil is scarce. I would hardly say oil is scarce and going to run out anytime soon. But if we continue to use more than is produced we will have shortages. Either way I think it is complete and utter bullshit that a company can create its own supply and demand just by the ammount of oil it decides to produce and refine. Build more refineries and the price of gas will go down. Simple as that.
