Yes, the sulphur has been difficult to get rid of for many years and with lower sulphur specs more of it is being pulled out by the refineries. It is used to make sulphuric acid which was used mainly by the fertiliser industry, but not too many of them left. They are still getting rid of it, but now have to pay rather than getting paid for it.
