Poland Sees 10% Rise in Number of Gas Stations in 1998 vs 1997, Paper Says
Warsaw, Feb. 26 (Bloomberg) -- The number of gasoline stations
in Poland rose by 10 percent annually over the past three years to
total 6,324 stations last year, 557 more than a year earlier, the
Polish daily Rzeczpospolita reported. Rafineria Gdanska SA and
Petrochemia Plock SA, two biggest Polish refineries, own the
largest number of stations. Foreign companies are led by BP Amoco
Plc, which owns 92 stations, while the second biggest owner is
Statoil with 85 stations, followed by Royal Dutch Petroleum Co.
with 77 stations and Aral with 52 stations, the paper said.
...Now today's $64 math question is - ''how many Gas Stations will need to be increased to serve the 1 Billion non Gas Station using folks in India, or the 5 Billion Chinese; let alone all the 3rd world Europeans in the now & former Poland's , Bulgaria, Slovenia's ...
ie:Demand - is a 10 year window really that far out; given the ''Euro'' and all that holds... When Japan does recover; can you imagine the infrastructure investments in Asia-minor and China... never so dark as just before the dawn...
...not a bad case for the real longterm investors to be buying a few Global Players - Intnl "Big Oil's, the Enron's & Electrical/Nat Gas players. |
