EFL Oil and Machinery
Corporate Information(stolen from wiki
):Unlike the other colonies in Sirius, the planets of Ile-de-France and other core systems of Gallia proved to have abundant supplies of oil. Utilizing nearly limitless oil deposits was more efficient for building up the new House than using other types of fuel and alternative means of generating energy.
In 234 A.G.S., a giant corporation named EFL Oil, of which the Crown owned a majority share, was formed to control all extraction, transportation, and processing of oil throughout Gallia.
In 440 A.G.S., when space colonization was on the rise, EFL absorbed several large shipbuilding and engineering companies, becoming EFL Oil & Machinery. In its new state, the corporation was responsible for building many of the currently operating Gallic space station, including several shipyards and space colonies.
Nowadays, EFL is the largest corporation in Gallia, with the total value of its enterprises estimated to be five hundred billion credits, and the number of employees counting as high as six million.
It is operating in virtually every field of the Gallic economy, both planet side and in space. In addition to building stations, the corporation is also one of the largest station operators in Gallic space. Despite the enormous damage caused by the Second Gallic War, EFL had sizable reserves that were used to compensate the losses. Yet, reserves are easily depleted, and the war is not yet over. Moreover, the Sirius invasion is now under way, which also puts the company under considerable strain due to its contracts with defence agencies and with the Royal Navy in particular.
Other corporations operating in Gallic space are either smaller, like IDF or Solar, or are less dependent on the government, like GMS. EFL is often considered the symbol of the excessive involvement by the Crown in Gallia's economy, which makes the corporation a favored target for terrorist groups like the Maquis. All these factors combined are expected to cause serious problems for the corporations long term finances unless it undertakes significant restructuring.
When the Ile-De-France arrived in what later would be called the Gallic Sector and the first colonies were established, surveyors soon discovered vast amounts of oil throughout Gallic territory. While oil is inferior to fusion or dark matter generators when it comes to space ship propulsion or military applications, it is well suited as a cheap, safe and reliable fuel for civilian cars and industrial machinery.
While the Gallic Crown possessed a monopoly on the extraction, transportation and refining of this "black gold" during the early years of the Empire, a company named EFL Oil and Machinery quickly made it's way to the top in the second century of Gallic settlement. Through the assimilation of many smaller companies the originally rather small company soon became the economic powerhouse it is today, owning whole stations, trade lanes and even shipyards.
EFL Oil and Manufacturing Department
EFL made most of its riches by mining the vast oil deposits in Gallia and currently supplies petrol to all Gallic spacecraft. EFL currently has 8 manufacturing stations that produce almost everything that is needed to support the Gallic Royal Navy and Police fleets. Also EFL OMD is responsible for resupplying stations with any consumer and non consumer goods that they request.
Produced goods
Prometheum
Prometheum is a rare element that is highly radioactive and chemically unstable. The major use of Prometheum is as a catalyst that allows Gallic engines to run at a safe temperature, while not being consumed itself. There are also a number of specialist research and medical applications for this element. The Gallic Royal forces are desperately trying to prevent its export from Gallia.

Polymers
A polymer is a large molecule of high relative molecular mass composed of five or more monomers, smaller molecular structures repeated over and over to form the polymer. While the simplest of polymers have only five monomers, typical polymers contain hundreds or thousands of monomers, and some advanced polymers stretch into chains of millions. Because of their physical and chemical characteristics, polymers have a tremendous range of uses and are ubiquitous within the technology and consumer products industries.
Petrochemicals
Chemical products manufactured from petroleum or other hydrocarbons are classified as petrochemicals. Petrochemicals are used in a large variety of products and manufacturing processes including detergents, fertilizers, medicines, paints, plastics, synthetic fibers, and synthetic rubber. Petrochemicals' effects on their surroundings range from harmless to toxic or corrosive, and may be stable, highly flammable, or explosive.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas
Liquefied Petroleum Gas, or LPG, consists of a mixture of hydrocarbon gases that have been cooled to a liquid state. LPG can be used as a low density fuel source for terrestrial vehicles, generators, and machines, along with various consumer applications, and may also be used as a refrigerant. Hydrocarbon gases are often transported in a liquefied state due to volume constraints, then allowed to decompress for use as a gaseous fuel.
Oil
Gallic Industrial economies rely heavily on the abundance of natural fuel oil to power engines, produce electricity, and manufacture a wide variety of products. Due to its non-polarity, oil does not easily adhere to other substances. This makes oil useful as a lubricant for various engineering purposes. Gallic engines use a form of fusion known as the CNO cycle, a process that occurs naturally inside stars. Unlike stars, Gallic technology cannot recycle the carbon, it is converted to nitrogen in the fusion process.
Munitions
Munitions are the expendable components of combat, and include bullets, bombs, missiles, warheads, mines, and other projectiles or explosives that are detonated or cannot be reused after being fired. Munitions that detonate may cause the detonation of other nearby munitions, thus causing shipments and stockpiles to be carefully safeguarded by their owners, and are important targets for enemy attacks.
Plastics
Plastics are typically formed from polymers of high molecular mass, and may contain a large variety of additives to affect their physical properties. Due to their relatively low cost, versatility, and ease of manufacture, plastic has been used as a substitute for many natural materials such as wood, stone, metal, glass, and ceramic. A major source of plastic precursors is petroleum.
EFL Specialized Transport and Construction
EFL STC is responsible for shipping and constructing trade lanes and gates, resupplying stations and battleships, building space stations. STC also works on transporting Royal Navy casualties out of hostile territory. STC shipping vessels are highly armored and is the second riskiest department to work in all of EFL.
Registered ships

EFL Security and Escort
EFL Security and Escort is a highly-trained EFL security branch, whose purpose is to protect the company's assets. Rumours has it that the branch hasenormous paycheck, due to the risk of escorting transports in hostile space. The branch has access to Gallic Royal Navy Perilous - class gunboats to ensure that company’s transports will not be lost to terrorists or hostile armed forces.

Recruitment
---WIP---
If you dont have a transport you will be provided with one.
PM me and add your skype id.
Diplomacy
EFL in Gallia is probably the richest company but only thanks to commodities that are mostly used in Gallia. Currently EFL is searching for partners outside of Gallia to help enter Sirius market.

Its been a while since I played disco, so forgive me if I forgot to add something. Please tell me your opinion. I tried to make this as clear and tidy as I can. If you want to join just simply PM me if you dont have a transport you will be provided with one.
Edit1: It seems that all luxury liners were sold to IDF. Added the bonus system!

A very desperate bump
Description changed added bonus system
RE: [EFL - EFL Oil and Machinery - Radion - 07-25-2016
Gallic activity? Yay.
Anyways, here's hoping for the best with your faction. It will be nice to finally have someone to work with as GRP other than the royal navy.
