where would he get the crude oil from though?

price you pay at the forecourt = world crude oil price + tax + small margin

Those huge profits come because they own the crude that's suddenly worth lots more than it was before.

So unless you actually own some crude in the ground somewhere, you can't sell for lower than the forecourt price without making a loss.
