Was Oil Up Today Simply Because Of Tropical Storm Nate? Operators Shutting Down Platforms In The Gulf -- October 5, 2017

The WTI / Brent spread, in round numbers: $6.00. See first comment:
Since Hurricane Harvey (the hurricane that hit the Houston/Corpus Christi area), US crude oil has been selling at a price so low compared to prices overseas that the Iranians could buy it, ship it to their country, sell it as their own and still make a 10% profit...

Now, I don't know if it's the Iranians or not, but it looks like someone has figured that out: https://twitter.com/JKempEnergy/status/915595242304425986.
They could probably do this with natural gas, also. $8+ overseas; $3 here in the US.
