It's not Shell's website. I think last I heard, it was run by Greenpeace or somesuch.
Right now, the polar ice caps of our planet are melting.
That's badbut it's also good!
That's right! It's bad because our planet needs ice at the poles. But it's good because when the polar ice melts, we at Shell can go up there to get more oil, which can do a whole lot of things. Thanks to oil:
Mommy and Daddy can drive to the store to buy you new toys.
Companies like Mattel can build new toys.
Engineers can drive to work to design new, better toys that are even more fun to play with.
When you're done with your toys, trucks can take them away to dispose of.
Oil can even help us fix some of the problems that melting ice causes.
So it's fine to be sad about our melting polar ice caps, and about how sad that makes the planetbut remember to be glad as well, because of all that the oil we're finding there is letting you do, now and far into the future!
all the gasoline comes from the same pipeline somewhere in your city. they just add a bucket of chemical additives to make it shell or Mobil or whatever.
Question for all of you that think oil is bad: How do you get to work?
No one said oil is bad.
Oh, and I get to work by opening the door and stepping into the next room.

Apparently I could have skipped all of the reactive distillation and catalytic cracking if I had just added a bucket of arbitrary chemicals! I guess all those years of training as a chemical engineer were for nothing! *facepalm*all the gasoline comes from the same pipeline somewhere in your city. they just add a bucket of chemical additives to make it shell or Mobil or whatever.

Your question is completely unrelated to anything in my post. Please try again.so as a chemical engineer you're saying that Shell gasoline is different from other gasoline ?

My point is simply this: your description does not match the reality of the situation at all. If you want an education, you'll have to pay for it just like I did.notice i did not say "crude oil pipe line"
my point is, that the gasoline in a Shell or Exxon station may have been refined by a number of different companies and pumped into the same pipeline. At the distributing point they may or may not add some other chemicals such as detergents to make it "shell" or whatever brand. and even then, the .gov mandates that it has certian detergents already in it. though, I imagine you already knew that, but wanted to rage a little.
so you work in a refinery that trucks every gallon to their specific branded gas station?
