BEST Unleaded Fuel: Shell, Petron or Caltex

[Trippin]

no surprise..

The Cleanest Fuel in the Philippines Comes from Caltex | Philippine Car News, Car Reviews, Automotive Features, and New Car Prices | ************

Bakit no surprise, sir?

Pano pag yung Caltex fuel galing sa depot ng ibang brand? This is the case for most of the Philippines.

Binigyan ako ng VIP card ng Caltex dito sa amin 2/liter ang discount kaya madalas caltex ako..pero dati pa ok sa Ertiga namin yung mga RON nila.

Question lang, mas ok ba pag newly opened yung station dahil mas malinis yung tangke nila? Aside sa Caltex, me Shell at Petron din na recent lang nag operate.

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

for imported fuel, i'm not sure at what stage in the distribution process where additives are added

twice i've seen a gas station employee climb up to a tanker truck and pour something into the tank

it could be that additives are added at that late stage

Ako, di ako nagpapakarga kung may nakita akong tanker sa gasolinahan. Pag nag fill up sila ng tanks. Na hahalo kasi yung dumi na nakasettle sa ilalim.

ako din hindi ako nag papa karga pag kababa lang tanker ng produkto nila, nabubulabog kasi ang under ground storage tank, remember underground storage tank ay imbakan din yan ng mga dumi at tubig, pag tumaas sya pwede mag halo sa pina pakarga mo sa car..
