Over the past two decades the entire petroleum industry in the US and Europe has been going through the process of replacing single walled storage tanks with double-walled fiberglass. This replacement is now being done in other areas of the world, as the article from Hong Kong indicates.

BP may not need to make this change-over in New Zealand as Maurice has determined that metallic corrosion does not actually occur in New Zealand due to the protection of magical faerie rays which he learned of from his imaginary friends in the spirit world.

Container leaks were devastating when they did occur because of the volume leaked over time.

Surface leaks at retail operations and bulk distribution centers are still a larger volume problem in total, even though the volume at each site is smaller.

Having removed the lead and MTBE, the components of the gasolines now produced are all biodegradable which helps minimize the long term consequences of leaks.
