Oil refining in the Philippines began in the early 1900s, with the first refinery established in 1954 by the Philippine Refining Company. The industry expanded with the construction of more refineries over the decades, facing challenges such as fluctuating oil prices and regulations. Today, the country has several refineries operated by companies like Petron Corporation and Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation.
Some examples of empathy statements include:

The number of people working in pulp mills can vary greatly depending on the size and capacity of the mill. Smaller mills may have a few dozen employees, while larger mills can employ hundreds or even thousands of workers.
Contrary to popular belief there are many, spread all over. According to the EIA, 149. However, they are not all dedicated to refining oil into usable gasoline, and 149 still aren't enough. The real problem, however, is not that there aren't enough refineries (which, once again, there aren't,) but that the refineries we have are not working at maximum capacity. Regularly, their parent companies will shut them down or scale them back, dramatically reducing their output. The oil companies say its due to refinery age, reparis, etc. There is much debate, however, as to whether or not these actions are actually deliberate in order to boost prices at the pump. It could be argued that with problems occurring that increase expenses for oil companies that their increase in profits recently makes those same statements of high expenditures false. What adds further weight to the debate is the fact that dozens of refineries have been closed in the past 15 years, which doesn't add up during a supply shortage or price spike caused by the same, with increase in demand. It is also widely known that in the mid-1990's some refineries were closed as a direct result of refinery overproduction, during times of surplus, which was due to a loss of profits by the relevant companies. This further makes recent industry profit spikes quite coincidental, now that those refineries are closed and production is strickly controlled, shortage or surplus with every barrel with limited refineries, which can be slowed for any reason. Regardless, production of gasoline and related products is affected, and to be fair, 60% of U.S. oil is imported, and so conflicts in Iraq and problems with Iran, Venezuela, long shipping times/distances all can also dramatically affect the price of gasoline as well, and have been known to hamper it in the past.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, the oil and gas industry employed 125,370 people in 2001
My felony was over 7 years ago and halliburton did not hire me..
No, this is genuine seller. We gone thru few transactions with them before.
Heard of this company but couldn't find anyone to provide proof of legitimate of this company. Anyone can help?

There've been no new oil refineries opened in the last 10 Years. As a matter of fact none have been built in over 30 years. The last new refinery opened was in the mid 1970s.
However, there're two new refineries in the process of getting approved and built, one in Arizona to come on line this year, and one in S. Dakota where construction will start this year.
It wasn't actually invented more like discovered. It progressed over time. People were involved to get to the place it's in today. Not really any one person has invented petrol. It was a development over time.
Petrol is commonly known as gasoline so:
Who invented gasoline?
No one.
Crude oil is organic remains of plants and animals Buried long ago. The organic material over a long period of time changes to different length of hydrocarbons. Crude oil is unrefined petroleum. The way to get crude oil through drilling. The exploration and finally the drilling process are complex and require investments and skill.
If you count the list on wikipedia, they are aprox 637 refinery complexes (including upgraders).
Computer can be used in oil exploration for so many reasons.some are as follow;
1)computer can be used to narrow down search that is to be made by the extractors.
2)conputer can be applied in the extraction for raw materials and other resourses which are essential in oil exploration.

No. The last refinery was built in 1976 and there are no plans to build any new ones. Existing petroleum refineries are experiencing declining operating revenues and are actually reducing their capacity to around 80%. This is in part due to the economic downturn and in part a result of a continuing downward trend in the refining industry that began in 2005. Imports of refined products are increasing to fill the gap between domestic supply and demand, though even these have declined as overall consumption has dropped from 2005-2008.
Hope that helps!
