 The Year Was 1992
Hurricane Andrew
If you were in South Florida on August 24, 1992 this is a moment in time that you will never forget.  Back then you were not given as much of a warning that a Hurricane was approaching, it was mere days.  Today we know that Erika is out there and could be here next week.
  
At a fuel company, calls preceding a Hurricane are nonstop with customers wanting fuel for their emergency generators and everything else.  There was no such thing as "Hurricane Preparedness" in 1992.  Lank Oil handled the calls the best they could and were back on the road as soon as possible after the storm.

Hurricane Andrew was, at the time of its occurrence in August 1992, the costliest hurricane in United States history.
  • Highest winds: 175 mph (282 km/h)
  • Date: August 16, 1992 - August 28, 1992
  • Category: Category 5 Hurricane (SSHS)
  • Flashback : Average Costs in the 1990's
    Cost of a new home: $144,100.00 
    Cost of a new car: $16,000.00
    Median Household Income: $30,636.00 
    Cost of a first-class stamp: $0.29 
    Cost of a gallon of regular gas: $1.13 
    Cost of a dozen eggs: $0.93 
    Cost of a gallon of Milk: $2.78 
    Lank Oil Company gets a New Sign!

    In celebration of our 50th Year in business we decided to update the sign on the front of our building!  We think it is a vast improvement!  The old sign was actually rehung on the side of the building so it could be seen from the approach on West McNab Road.

    Lank Oil Passes USCG Inspection!
    In August Lank Oil had their Annual United States Coast Guard Inspection of their trucks and facility.  I'm happy to announce that they passed with flying colors and No Deficiencies.  This approval is needed for Lank Oil to legally bunker fuel to vessels that carry more than 10,500 gallons of fuel.  Great job Team Lank!
