More fuel usage means more oil shipped over on boats that measure fuel economy in gallons per mile rather than MPG, or more commonly tons per hour, which in the case of a fuel ship is around 16 tons per hour or just over 5,000 gallons per hour.... and that's just port to port. You then have the HGV tankers delivering fuel to your station at, what, 6.5mpg on average?
Then you have the folk who just implement DPF and EGR deletes anyway...
