Nearly 300 platforms have been evacuated.While oil prices often spike before a major storm as production slows, consumers are unlikely to see big price changes because the pandemic decimated demand for fuel.The storm track stretches from Port Arthur, Texas, to Lake Charles, La, an area with a half-dozen large oil refineries and natural-gas processing plants.Six of those oil-processing plants, that convert nearly 2.33 million barrels per day of oil into fuel and account for about 12 per cent of U.S. processing, were shut down on Wednesday.The NEXRAD radar data out of Lake Charles, LA shows #Laura's strong outer bands already pushing through southern Louisiana & east Texas, as well as a clear outline of the eye of the hurricane.
