MFA Oil has strengthened its operations in southwest Greene County, Mo. In May, the company completed the installation of a new Petro-Card 24 facility, added bulk fuel storage tanks, and expanded its propane storage capacity at a site positioned on the outskirts of Springfield, Mo.
The new location at 6229 W Highway 60 in Brookline, Mo., now has red diesel, clear diesel and gasoline available to the public for purchase.
“We’ve been looking for a spot along the Highway 60 corridor where we could build a Petro-Card 24 for our customers,” says Andy Hays, district manager for the company’s southwest district. “This site meets that purpose and will also serve as a great location for our drivers to refill their fuel and propane delivery trucks.”
Each of the three 20,000-gallon bulk fuel tanks that were placed at the location are connected to a fuel rack that will allow company drivers to refill from the ground rather than climbing on top of their trucks.
“Filling up from the ground is safer for our drivers and should also save them time as the new equipment has faster pumping rates, which will help us get to our customers more efficiently,” Hays says. “We also doubled our propane storage capacity at this location.”
Hays says MFA Oil is evaluating additional locations in the company’s southwest district where it would make sense to add Petro-Card 24 facilities.
