so recently i learned about the Inert Gas System used on fuel tankers and how it usually uses either Nitrogen or Carbon Dioxide to do it.

and how basically this means that fuel is potentially carbonated to make sure it doesn't explode on ships when being transported.

@Felthry probably not but I'm still giggling at the idea of fizzy petrol anyway because my brain is garbage and i did not sleep well lol
