Why is the oil in private gas stations cheaper? Do I add it or not?

Friends who drive noticed that the oil price of private gas stations is generally lower than two barrels of oil, and some people wash cars and deliver things for free. In this regard, many car owners have doubts and ask: Why is the oil price of private gas stations relatively low? Can I add it or not? Today, I will talk to our car owners and friends about this problem, hoping to answer the questions in their hearts and let everyone maintain their cars more scientifically and efficiently. ? Why is the oil price of private gas stations still relatively low? ? 1, with few intermediate links? In fact, the oil products of regular private gas stations are basically the same as those of PetroChina and Sinopec. Private gas stations purchase goods directly from oil companies affiliated to oil refining enterprises, and then sell them directly at gas stations.

However, after PetroChina and Sinopec purchase from oil refining companies, they must first put them in their own oil depots, and then gas stations can import oil from Snoely and sell it to the outside world, which will increase the cost of oil depots and transportation. ? In this process, private gas stations can save oil depot fees, freight and labor costs. The money saved can be used for price reduction promotion or activities. ? 2. Low operating costs? In addition to the differences mentioned above, the staffing of private gas stations is not as good as that of state-owned gas stations, and they are generally built in a slightly different location, occupying a relatively small area and operating costs are much less than those of state-owned gas stations.

Although the so-called sparrow is small and complete, private gas stations are small but more flexible. Basically, zero inventory operation can be realized. If the time is right, you can also hoard oil and sell it when the oil price rises. This profit is also very considerable. ? So it can be promoted through price reduction, so its price is relatively cheaper than that of PetroChina and Sinopec.

3. Market competition? Private gas stations, whether in scale or brand, are not comparable to state-owned gas stations. Faced with considerable market competition pressure, it is like grabbing meat from the wolf's mouth. In order to get more car owners to refuel, we can only reduce the oil price appropriately to attract more customers on the premise of ensuring the quality of oil products. ? Can private gas stations refuel? ? In fact, the oil of more regular private gas stations is either wholesale from PetroChina or Sinopec or bought from oil companies affiliated to refineries. ? Is the oil quality of regular private gas stations guaranteed? As long as it is a regular private gas station, its oil source is supervised by the state, and the oil products of local refineries are also strictly supervised and audited by the state. In fact, sometimes PetroChina and Sinopec also import oil from local refineries, so this channel is basically safe.

In addition, to put it bluntly, gas stations only sell oil and do not have the ability to make oil, so the quality of regular private gas stations is still guaranteed. ? Some private gas stations may have oil problems? However, this is limited to some more formal private gas stations. In order to reduce the cost, a few "black-hearted" gas stations will use some inferior oil, some from unknown sources and some from private refining in black workshops.

What's more, do some shady things, such as adjusting the system of the tanker with special technology. You added 50 liters, but only 48 liters in the tank. ? Try to avoid shabby private gas stations? The operating strength of such gas stations is generally poor, which can be seen from the decoration of gas stations. The tattered gas station, which has not been decorated for many years, is overgrown with weeds and only has a few tankers. Seeing this, our car owners and friends will take the initiative to give up. ? Summary:? Remind car owners and friends that although private gas stations are cheap, you should keep your eyes open when choosing. ? Try to choose some private gas stations with long business hours and good reputation, and don't go to those with low prices or deliberate knockoffs.
