RSNALD, your 2 cents worth is right on the ball. You are most correct why our oil companies are reluctant to push for biodiesel. They do not see the profit and goodwill potential in marketing a B1 or B2 blend.

However, they do add additives into their gasoline like Blaze, Vortex Gold and Velocity and market it at a premium (better profit margin too). They should take same approach with Diesel.

Selling a product that improves air quality is a very effective marketing campaign. Furthermore, the PR mileage of doing good for the agri sector, environment, and channeling dollars from oil importation to local economy can bring them so much goodwill !

Bless Seaoil, Flying V and Eastern Petroleum - these 3 independents see biodiesel in the correct light. With that I hope their market share increases from 8% to 20% !!
