Well, That Was Easy ...

... Tesoro announces it will upgrade its rail fleet to consist entirely of newer CPC-1232-compliant cars.

Specifically, Tesoro is committing that its rail car fleet will consist entirely of the newer DOT-111 design rail cars equipped with reinforced shields and relief devices by mid-2014. While this action applies to the vast majority of crude oil deliveries into Tesoro facilities, beginning in mid-2014 Tesoro will also make rail car design a part of its commercial considerations with all business partners who may ship crude oil into company-owned facilities. This includes Tesoro`s refinery in Anacortes, WA, and the proposed Tesoro-Savage Energy Distribution Terminal in Vancouver, WA.
