I am not really sure what you are wanting but the time has been cut in half. Before yesterday it took you 7 days to get 28 barrels of crude oil now it only takes 3.5 days to get 28 barrels of crude oil. I use 99% of my crude oil for petrochemical production because I do not need fuel right now and if I was to refuel I would have around 3 million units of fuel so no need to make fuel right now. That leave me with enough crude oil to fill 2 oil refineries of petrochemical barrels 3 times a week.
wow. how did you get so much fuel? That's all I make as there is not enough for both (for me).

1 crude oil makes 12 fuel tanks

1 fuel tank gives you 300 units of fuel

12 fuel tanks x 300 = 3600 units of fuel

It takes 60 barrels of crude oil to max out the oil refinery.

60x12x300= 216000 units of fuel

At that rate it is less then 5 fillings of the refinery to make a million units of fuel. The last time I refuled was months ago and I got I think 3.5 million units I have just over 1 million left. I only load my facilities 3 times a week not everyday and I max out most things every time. The only things I don't max out are things like fuel and tomato sauce stuff that you make way more then you need. I max out the petrochemical plant every time I load the facilities and I have 5732 petrochemical barrels in storage. If you just watch what your really need and do not try to keep the facilities maxed out 100% of the time it is easy to let some things build up in storage to where you will not have a problem with that item.

I am sure I don't have a problem with fuel, a few months ago when they released the update that everybody loss fuel and they gave some of us extra fuel when I filled up I had over 5 million units of gas and haven't had to refill since, but it is getting close to time that I will... but I my issue is even with the new increases and I have waited a few times to verify this but with 11 pumps going and only working facilities every other day, I can max out the refinery to 100% no problem but it will only get the Petrochemical Plant to about 72% and that is with working my neighbors facilities and collecting barrels from them. So if we could up the production of the petrochemical barrels that would sure help this.
My other issues are being able to produce enough Wool from Sheep and llamas. Milk from Cows, and eggs from Hens. I have animal barns on 10 farms loaded to the max and then some. I have saved one farm from putting any facilities or animal barns on. Only thing like that I have on it is an oil pump cause it can hide easily.
We're getting there but still need some adjustments made.

Hi If you need additional Petrochemical barrels one way is to request a item like turpentine or plastic granules from your neighbors this will add additional petrochemical barrels to your storage.
