Thought of this since Murphy had been mentioned a few times here. Was doing a keyword search for something and came across this:


They include SDSs for various fuels and fuel additives that they use. Some are pretty simple like the fuel ethanol that they use. I don't know if they always go with Green Plains (thought fuel ethanol was basically considered generic just like fuel where the supplier can't be specified and different ones can even be mixed), but for the most part fuel ethanol is similar regardless of the supplier. Since they sell biodiesel, they have an SDS for a cold weather additive to improve flow. They seem to mix and match different additives. They list two gasoline detergent additives - one from BASF (Keropur AP 205-15) and the other from Lubrizol (ULTRAZOL 8219CA). The latter seems to have over a dozen variations with a suffix added to 8219. Not sure if it stands for anything.

Not sure if this means that they have a setup like the big oil companies and only the additives they provide/reserve are used for their deliveries.
