By boat, which routes do foreign oil carriers take to get here?

By that, I mean, (if not too tiring) name a country we import petroleum from, direction of travel, and which port in the States they use.


I'll add, as a bonus, the refinery it goes to.
 
I believe the USA is (was) one of the few countries that can refine high sulfur oil from Venezuela,

Also I read that we import gasoline from Europe as they get more gas than they need (they really want the diesel) during the refining process.
 
Hello, The OP asked sweeping, inclusive questions.

Had he asked all this in 1942 he'd be detained and questioned.

Yeah, Kira Iwas wanting something like : we get 100 (10% of our usage) million barrels of crude from Saudi Arabia each month, it then travels south of Africa and west to Miami beach, where XOM, refines it into group IIIs and, gasoline, diesel and jetA.........all just made up since i dont have a clue. Hence, why I asked.
