DirectionModeRoutePoint / originProductsSource
crude in truck Yellow wax crude (delivery mode not stated by the operator)
The operator says the refinery processes yellow wax crude only. Every crude tank in the 2016 Utah air permit holds yellow wax crude. No current document states how the crude arrives; a rail history page says the 1953 site was chosen so crude could be delivered by heated trucks.

Rates are pipeline line-haul transcribed from published FERC tariffs; every figure cites its tariff and item. Cost to serve (netback) adds origin spot price and destination fees. "Confirmed" links match a tariff delivery point to the facility; "same city" means the point is in the facility's city — plausible, not proof; "per research" means the facility's research profile names the pipeline as an outlet.
