He does live with his mom.

The second largest award of oil at the Oct. 4 bid selection – after the 6 million barrels that went to Marathon Ashland Petroleum – went to a company called Lance Stroud Enterprises of New York City, which bid for 4 million barrels worth $133 million at current market price.

It turns out the company operates out of a Manhattan apartment that the owner and company namesake reportedly shares with his mother. Attempts to contact Stroud were unsuccessful Wednesday. His telephone number was listed as unpublished.

<<I imagine what he'd do is as simple as someone who contracts to build a house. Estimate a price, get acceptance of the deal, and then contract other parties to complete the project. Isn't that how independents usually work? >>

Usually, but with our refineries working at capacity with their own oil I doubt he'd find any refinery to refine it and deliver it to the NE before cold weather.
