From the linked article at Platts:
- gasoline cargo; 86,688 bbls of gasoline from Onsan, South Korea
- hasn't happened since summer, 2015 (last time Portland, OR, imported gasoline from South Korea)
- shipper: Phillips 66
- the tanker: Azalea Galaxy
- transit: two weeks
- not unprecedented for Portland, OR, to import a refined product: happened most recently, December 17, 2017; from Singapore; then it was renewable diesel fuel (whatever renewable diesel fuel is)
- BP Cherry Point, in Blaine, WA, is undergoing major repair work; slated to be down for the entire month of April (2018)
- I guess Portland couldn't find a tanker of gasoline from Louisiana
- [actually, there's more to the story -- at the link -- and it's not as strange / unusual as it might sound]
