"The depot is 60 percent-owned by Paris-based Total, and Chevron's Texaco Inc. has the rest. It handled 2.37 million metric tons of fuel in 2002, Total said. About 400 road tankers use the depot each day."

One of the articles that was posted on the explosions said that this was a BP refinery and depot. The article in our local paper has no mention of who owned the depot. Any claification would be appreciated.

Thinking about whether it is Total/Chevron or BP, I am wondering if the depot is managed by BP. BP's MO is to control the movement of both product and crude in their areas of operation, thus controlling price.
