Is the oil in Shandong cheaper than water?
Thread Content
The contract price of diesel in the Shandong market has dropped to as low as 4,450 yuan per ton. Assuming 1 ton of diesel is equivalent to 1,176 liters, diesel with a volume of 500 ml costs around 1.9 yuan； The minimum price for gasoline is 4,680 yuan per ton. Assuming 1 ton of gasoline equals 1,388 liters, 500 ml of gasoline costs less than 1.7 yuan. In first- and second-tier cities, a 500ml bottle of mineral water generally costs at least 2 yuan.
As a result, refineries across the country are turning to the production of downstream fine chemical products.
I had no idea until I calculated it; it was a shock
However, when it comes to consumer purchase, the price is not this amount; a fee called “tax” must also be added.
Who would have thought that the harm caused by heavy taxes is even greater than that of snakes?
I’ve never used gasoline that costs 3.4 yuan per liter
There are always companies that aren’t afraid to evade taxes
It can’t be that cheap; it’s probably just blended oil
Are you joking with me? What water? There are also those worth over a hundred yuan. Is the factory price of oil low? Can it meet the specification? . It can only be sold mixed in
It’s true that diesel and gasoline in Shandong are cheap. The price mentioned by the poster can’t possibly be that of products from legitimate refineries; it’s more likely that these are mixtures prepared by unlicensed, small-scale operators. Since there is no tax involved, the price seems much lower. After The Beijing News reported on the issue of consumption taxes on diesel and gasoline produced in Shandong last year, such cheap fuels basically disappeared, and those who dealt in blended diesel switched to other businesses – after all, who would dare to continue such activities in a situation where they’re under scrutiny?
The cost of diesel and gasoline is more or less the same; from the refineries to gas stations and then to car fuel tanks, there are various intermediaries who add their markups, as well as various fees and taxes.
