March 18, 2019: "Gasoline prices rose for the fifth consecutive week and they could jump higher following refinery fires in Texas and California, analysts said.

The fires, at Exxon Mobil's Baytown refinery and Phillips 66's Carson refinery near Los Angeles at the end of last week, could further tighten gasoline supplies that typically shrink around this time of year as refiners shut down for maintenance ahead of peak summer demand. It's unclear how long the units affected by the fires may remain out of commission."
