What is the difference between Jing Oil and Sinopec?
2 Answers
The differences between Jing Oil and Sinopec are: 1. Different refining processes: Jing Oil mainly uses domestic crude oil; Sinopec mostly uses imported crude oil. 2. Different operation modes: Jing Oil, as a private enterprise, has a smaller operation scope; Sinopec is a state-owned enterprise with a larger operation scope. Fueling precautions are: 1. Use automotive gasoline, as inappropriate fuel entering the fuel system may damage the fuel system and engine; 2. Do not use gasoline containing methanol or alcohol; 3. Avoid spilling fuel on the paint surface to prevent damage; 4. If the fuel tank door is frozen and cannot be opened, gently push or tap the fuel tank door to remove the ice and open it; 5. Prevent excessive fuel pressure from causing fuel spray.
After using cars for so many years, I often choose Jingyou and PetroChina at gas stations. I feel the main differences between them lie in regional coverage and service details. Jingyou is mainly rooted in the Beijing area, with service stations concentrated in Beijing and its surroundings. They have a lot of promotional activities, often offering car wash vouchers or small gifts when refueling on weekends. PetroChina, on the other hand, is different—you can easily spot their red and white logo at highway service areas and in other cities across the country. Their nationally standardized fuel gives people a sense of reliability. In terms of price, I haven’t noticed much difference, as both follow the national oil price standards. However, the staff at Jingyou stations are more attentive, proactively helping to clean windshields and add windshield fluid, which is quite thoughtful. For drivers who frequently travel out of town, PetroChina is definitely more convenient. For someone like me who mainly drives within the city, I prefer Jingyou.
