"They increase the production | cost of a gallon of gasoline and | sooner or later these higher costs will have to be passed on to the| consumer in the form of higher prices." BIG NEW INDUSTRY But the expansion and moderni- zation, is only part of the refining story. The industry has spawned the manufacture of petrochemical products from refinery gases, some of which were burned off as waste. Thousands of chemicals and other items ranging from ny- lon stockings to plastics and fer- tilizer can now be produced. This country's biggest refining) area is a 4,000-acre segment of | the eastern tip of the isuand of| Montreal, The storage tanks, cooling tow- ers and cracking units and the maze of pipes owned by five ma- jor companies represent a third of Canada's refinery capacity.

A permanent disruption of Middle East sup- plies, increased tanker rates or a general crude price hike would make western crude attractive to the Montreal purchasers, refiners say. Another factor is the call of American independent oil com- panies for import curbs. Canada now enjoys a privileged position in the United States market, but/ should a tariff increase or quota restrictions be ordered production from Prairie wells would have to be curbed drastically. If this happened, observers say, western producers would press for a pipeline extension to take oil to Montrezl, The Montreal mar- ket would more than offset any export loss to the U.S. he most economic markets for western oil are, apart from the Prairies, British Columbia and | Ontario, the Pacific northwest and north central states of the United States.
