![]() Gov. Jeb Bush warned Florida could see shortages of gasoline in coming days as a result of Hurricane Katrina. The hurricane roared through the nation's major gas refineries and shut down production of thousands of oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. Bush said Florida has worked with the U.S. Department of Energy and the Petroleum Industry to bring significant supplies of gasoline into the state's ports. But David Mica of the Florida Petroleum Council said it will take time before oil rigs and refineries are operating again. Bush blames oil companies for keeping lower inventories than they have in the past and that makes shortages more likely. But Mica says the oil industry has produced record amounts of petroleum each of the last three years and that global demand has also increased to record levels. |
