Murphy USA quadruples its E15, E85 and biodiesel line-up in Iowa

August 3, 2014 |

In Iowa, Murphy USA has just converted four stations to now offer E15, E85 and biodiesel in Iowa, providing Iowa motorists with more low-cost, cleaner-burning fueling options. The Murphy USA stations in Fort Dodge, Mason City, Clinton and Davenport joined the previously converted Indianola location in offering more renewable fuels blends.

In accordance with summertime fuel regulations, E15 will initially be sold to flex-fuel vehicles throughout the summer driving season at Murphy USA locations. However, Murphy USA will offer E15 as a registered fuel to 2001 and newer vehicles starting in mid-September. Murphy USA has 1,200 stations in 23 states. In addition to higher ethanol blends, Murphy USA’s Iowa locations will offer three grades of gasoline blended with 10 percent ethanol. The previously converted Indianola fueling site is located at 1502 N. Jefferson Street, and offers E15 and E85.

“Murphy USA is excited to expand our product offerings with E15 and E85,” stated Murphy UA Senior Retail Fuel Supply Specialist Jennifer Forbess. “We proudly support communities across the state of Iowa who have called for higher ethanol blends such as E15 and E85. Murphy USA will continue to pursue opportunities to offer the fuels our customer’s desire.”

“It’s exciting to welcome four more Murphy USA fueling sites to the growing list of stations in Iowa providing more American-made fuel choices to motorists,” stated Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Managing Director Lucy Norton. “With five Murphy USA stations already converted, and another two stations on the way, motorists in seven large Iowa cities will have greater access to cleaner-burning, lower-cost ethanol and biodiesel blends.”
