Basin a victim of its own stunning success? Oil production in the Permian, that petroleum rich landmass straddling Texas and New Mexico, has been wrestling with takeaway capacity over the last 18 months. Production consistently outpaces the ability of Permian producers to deliver the commodity to shippers and refineries. That, coupled with <a title="Refinery shutdowns" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034319/http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-25/refinery-shutdowns-threaten-to-raise-u-s-pump-prices.html"
