IMO we will see a BIG increase in demand for refined products this summer. Back in the summer of 2009 (a year after the oil price dropped in Q3 2008) there was a HUGE increase in demand (~3 million bbls per day). You may recall the global economy was in big trouble back then, so this summer's spike in demand could be even more. BTW this will happen at the same time U.S. production goes on decline.
