    the gasoline and diesel that comes out of refineries are more or less the same (base gasoline and base diesel)

    additives are then added later on at the distribution level (called the"terminal rack")

    you can see tanker trucks from different companies at the terminal rack... meron branded na tanker, meron generic na tanker

    point is, gas stations with different brands may be getting their fuel from the same refinery


    --


    for petroleum product importers like Seaoil, Phoenix, Unioil, Eastern Petroleum, Flying V etc they may or may not know from which refinery the products are produced

    coz they may not be buying directly from foreign refiners but from trading houses (based in Singapore)

    trading houses are positioned between refiners and importers

    They buy products from refiners (trading houses own vessels and storage facilities) and sell the products to our importers
