About Propane in South Texas
The propane that is bought and sold in Texas, primarily in south Texas is comes out of the natural gas stream right here in Texas. While other parts of the world use propane that comes from crude oil, our geographic area allows us to sell propane that is brought right out of the Texas ground. Most all of our physical product (propane) is bought from and loaded at a gas processing facility as opposed to a refinery. While there are many articles, discussions and debates about product purity, Mission Gas Company can assure you that propane in your tank is some of the highest quality propane available.
