Who would you have Exxon compete with? Mobil? It is Exxon Mobil after all... Simply put, if I didn't buy fuel from Esso/Imperial Oil (Exxon), I would't be buying fuel. It's very simple here. Esso has one refiery. Irving has one refinery. They work in cahoots with each other on a regional distribution basis so that ALL fuel is delivered from one bulk plant or another.
