Most tankers carry either crude oil from oil fields to refineries or petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oil, or petrochemical feedstock from refineries to distribution centres. Some tankers with special food-grade holds, pumps, and other handling equipment can carry molasses, edible oil, and even wine in bulk. Specialized ships for transporting liquefied natural gas and fruit juices are often called tankers, though on these ships the cargo is actually carried in large refrigerated containers that fit into the hold. 4, record 2, English, - tanker

The New York Cotton Exchange was formed by 106 cotton merchants and brokers in 1870.... Because the Exchange's state charter specifies trading in cotton only, expansion to include trading in other commodities has been accomplished through the establishment of separate corporations. The first of these was the Wool Associates, founded in 1931. The next was the Citrus Associates, founded in 1966. 1971 saw the introduction of liquefied propane gas, governed by the Petroleum Associates. In September 1974, the Petroleum Associates began trading in crude oil. 3, record 19, English, - New%20York%20Cotton%20Exchange

In recent years, the major source of economic rent from natural resource production in Canada has been the energy sector-from conventional oil, natural gas and liquefied petroleum gases(LPG), and hydrogenerated electricity. While these resources have thus been the primary focus of our efforts to estimate the magnitude of natural resource rent in Canada, a first approximation of economic rent generated by forestry and(non-energy) mineral production has also been incorporated into the analysis... 1, record 20, English, - natural%20resource%20rent
