  - Nominated approximately 4 million barrels of gasoline monthly on Plantation/Colonial Pipelines supplying 22 terminals from Collins, MS to Newington, VA. Exxon maximized volume on Plantation PL but many terminals dual fed so supplemented Colonial PL bbls during supply disruptions or allocation issues.- Coordinate with Exxon’s Baton Rouge refinery, sales and marketing to forecast and plan supply / demand balances for CBOB, PCBOB, RBOB and PBOB.
