I would be very supprised if they do any trucking of the Hilo bound oil before it gets to Hilo. I would imagine that the oil is piped directly from the tanker to the refinery and then the gas is piped back to the barge. Seeing as how it has to get refined somewhere, I agree that a dollar surcharge seems excessive and is probably due to a lack of competition.
