National Gas Out Day
OK, just for Sh*%'s and giggles I know that if you want to effect one oil company you must avoid all the stations that buy their refined gasoline. Below is a small article about a regional gas station some may be familiar with it "wawa" in the mid-atlantic PA,NJ,DE etc. You can see that not only do oil companies sell their product to many different gas station Ex: Exxon/Mobil sells not only to their own brand stations but to other small non branded name stations while this regional one "Wawa" buys from multiple oil companies to supply all of it's stations. The article was initially about weather the oil here come from middle east.
"So this means that a great deal of the gas they buy is refined at the Sunoco refineries in Philadelphia and Marcus Hook, but also they buy gas from two Valero refineries in Paulsboro NJ and Delaware City DE. These four outlets supply most of the PA, Southern NJ, DE and Northern MD stores. Wawa's stores north of Atlantic City in New Jersey get their gas from the huge Conoco refinery in Linden. As for the southern MD nad VA stores, of course there are loading terminals in these areas, but I have no idead what pipelines they are hooked up to..... "
Also check this link out, it goes on to explain from start to finish how we get gas from the pump. You will see that even branded gas stations my not even be selling their brand our of the pump!!!!!!
