Mike Jennings, president and CEO of Frontier Oil, said: "Apart from the effect of a large inventory loss attributable to a $60 drop in West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices and our FIFO accounting method, Frontier produced a good financial result for the quarter including operating cash flow of $76.9 million. Our fourth quarter benefited from record setting distillate yields in El Dorado and record setting coker throughput in Cheyenne."
