Gulf Oil LP, a national branded supplier of motor fuels throughout the United States and its territories, has deployed 34 transport trucks that run on liquefied natural gas (LNG). For our own fleet, we locked in a five year discount against diesel costs to guarantee a significant return on investment.

It takes really long to form fossil fuels They are air pollutants – Combustion of fossil fuels emits greenhouse gases causes air pollution Global warming – as a result of greenhouse gas emission, atmospheric temperature increases ( how? ). Diesel engines can use biodiesel alone or blended with petroleum fuels. #2

The goal is to compete with diesel and offer a viable alternative. After exploring various technologies, LNG emerged as the best fuel for long-haul trucking, while electric versions could be suitable for short distances. Our focus remains on serving the cement, steel, FMCG, oil and gas, and container industries, among others.

Additionally, neither mechanism would compromise the greenhouse gas reduction goals set by Assembly Bill 32. The LCFS program calls for a 10% reduction in the carbon intensity of fuel sold in California over the next decade. Obligated parties are upstream producers and importers of gasoline and diesel fuel sold in the state.
