Nearly all of the kingdom’s oil shipments to Canada travel to New Brunswick to Irving Oil’s Saint John plant, which can process about 299,000 barrels a day

Canada may hold the world’s third-largest crude reserves, but that’s little help to its largest refinery after a weekend attack disrupted production in Saudi Arabia, its biggest oil supplier.

A drone attack Saturday on Saudi Arabia’s biggest crude-processing plant knocked out about half the country’s output. Saudi Aramco faces weeks or months before the majority of supply from its Abqaiq plant is restored, according to people familiar with matter.The bulk of Canada’s reserves are located in the oilsands region of Northern Alberta, in the west of the country. Most of that oil is exported to the U.S. and while some can be shipped to eastern Canada on Enbridge Inc.

Too bad there wasnt a pipeline to that refinery from another place that could supply them with oil.
