And I can confirm this from personal experience in the 60's.
Back in the mid 60's I worked for a British American Oil [BA]* refinery in
Clarkson, Ontario. Among the jobs I did, one was in the 'Scale House' in
which we weighed all the truck tankers in & out. We had brand tankers and
general tankers in all the time. Even with the general tankers, one of the
items we logged was the destination. Short line: various companies and/or
brands all used the closest refinery.
* which became Gulf Canada and then Petro Canada

This has been beat to death on this list and others year after year. Fact
remains that regardless of the brand in a particular area, the gas all comes
from one or two refineries in the area. The particular item cited has been
around since 2005 and has been repeatedly debunked by Snopes.com.

I am probably wrong but I thought that BP, Amoco, Arco and Mobil were all
the same company. I had hear this when BP was being "avoided" due to the
gulf oil spill.
