Let the flood gates for exports begin! Interesting article in the Wall Stree Journal today that discusses the key processing for crude to be a distillation tower. Apparently stripping out the ligher ends at the well field meets the definition. What are your thoughts on this?

I can't find the article from your link. Not sure what your question really is. But this seems to get to condensate stabilizers and whether they constitute processing or not to enable to get around the law preventing us from exporting crude oil. I think that was a law passed during the oil crisis during the Jimmy Carter administration to prevent oil companies from producing domestic oil and selling it overseas for higher margins.
