#3 Everybody wants "light, sweet" (low sulfur, high % of gas/heating oil components) crude; not the "heavy, sour" stuff that is abundant and costs more to refine. However, most l/s is sold in long-term contracts, with just the remainder being sold on the high volatility "spot market". They undoubtedly want to create an l/s market with cheaper long-term contracts for *them*, and a much larger, thus less volatile spot market. This is why that idea will fail--it will be a controlled market competing against a free market.
