California

California is located along the USA’s West Coast and boats over 1,200 miles of coastline. Clipper Oil is headquartered in San Diego, CA, which has over 70 miles of coastline alone.

Clipper Oil has been supplying diesel fuel in California since 1985. Fuel prices in California differ from the rest of the U.S. because the fuel burned in California has to meet strict environmental guidelines. Special blends of fuel are produced within California and function to improve air quality. Diesel prices in California vary greatly depending on whether the fuel is dyed or clear. Fuel prices for clear diesel are much higher than dyed diesel since dyed diesel is usually exempt from certain taxes.

The earliest ports came into existence with California’s Gold Rush in the mid-1800s and have been around ever since. The state is home to 11 major ports, with the combined ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach make up the sixth-busiest port in the world.

In addition to shipping, California is home to many commercial and sport fishing fleets. While fisherman go after Chinook Salmon in Northern California, Southern California is home to some or the largest Yellowfin, Bluefin, and Albacore.
