Why would I want to provide links for something I have not asserted?   Bur 
not every company has a refinery, or a distribution centre, in every city, 
or even every province or state.  Distribution centres can fill for Esso, 
Shell, whatever is on contract, and the appropriate additives are in the 
fill.  Talk to someone who hauls fuel as an independent trucker, and ask who 
he hauls for, and where.  Look at what happened in Ontario when one Esso 
refinery had a fire.
