Petron ginagaya na Filoil, may 1.5M-2M ka puwede na gas station. Rent nga lang muna sa lot.

It's all about location really.

Yeah. Lots of small players go out of business really quickly because their location and market suck. Even if they bother to franchise from the "Big Three".

the big money in the energy sector is upstream (oil & gas). the downstream business makes little money

the public only see the downstream business of oil companies (gas stations) and think that's how oil companies make billions. nope that's not where the billions come from

Well, unioil WAS a small player before. Pero ngayon nagbibinata na sila

Regarding rust, wala akong naaalala na may nagchecheck. Ewan ko lang kung nag check sila before namin kunin noon yung station.

Pero nung paalis na kami, they need to pull out the remaining fuels inside the underground tank for rebate.
Nung una, sobrang linis ng fuel. Pero nung paubos na, kitang kita mo na yung latak. More or less, mga 200L remaining fuel nalang yun. Meron din namang kasi silang safety feature na kapag below 1000 liters nalang natira sa tank, auto shut off na agad yung fuel pumps. The only way para gumana uli yun is magpa deliver uli ng fuel.

Ah ok. That's good to know. May buffer siya na 1000L.

babynos, I have a question too.

How about if the gas station was flooded? And assuming that the tank was contaminated. What are the procedures then?

Ang alam ko they measure the contents of the tank first. Then they use water finding paste to check for water.

Yup. water finding paste. Meron pa ata dito sa bahay e.
Pero yung amin, kahit may bagyo and bumaha sa tapat(barado drainage) hindi naman pinasok yung tank.
