The '''Casa del Sol''' ([[Castellanese language|Castellanese]], by custom cited untranslated; [[Ingerish language|Ingerish]] ''House of the Sun''; [[Gohangukian language|Gohangukian]] ''태양의집'' [taeyanguijip]) is the official residence for the president of the [[Ardispheric Federation]], also serving as the primary offices for the cabinet and several smaller ministries. The name is also a commonly used metonym for the entire Ardispherian government, including the presidency, cabinet and associated ministries, not just in media but in government communication. Thus, one will typically hear "The Casa del Sol announced today a new initiative ...."

'''PetroSphere''' is a major petroleum extraction and refining company with headquarters at [http://opengeofiction.net/#map=17/-24.37387/123.97130 Torre PetroSphere, Calle Ispelia No. 1322, Barrio Pittsbourg] in [[Caracol, DS]], [[Ardisphere]].  


Architecturally, the building is not really a house, but rather an eight-storey office building in the imposing "Ardispherian Federal Style." Designed by noted turn-of-the-century architect [[Francisco Ybarra]], the first president to occupy the structure was [[Selenio Quiroga]] in 1911. Situated east of the Congeso building, along the west side of the Gran Bosque in [[Villa Constitución, DF]] (location: [http://opengeofiction.net/#map=16/-24.2744/123.9198 24.2744 S, 123.9198 E]), it is one of the most significant landmarks in the capital. It can easily be reached from the newly constructed Presidencia station on Metro Line 9, and free tours are conducted daily, departing from the underground presidential historical museum, under the East Garden, directly connected to the subway station.

PetroSphere is a major petroleum extraction and refining company with headquarters at Torre PetroSphere, Calle Ispelia No. 1322, Barrio Pittsbourg in Caracol, DS, Ardisphere.

History

Originally, President Eva Shinoda nationalized the petroleum industry in 1933, due to public disatisfaction with the exploitation of Ardispherian petroleum resources by foreign companies. The name during the publically-owned period was Petróleos Ardesféricos, but when the company was privatized in gradual phases from 1962 until the final divestment in 1982, it adopted the short and catchier "PetroSphere" as its official name, using the name already being used for its retail gasoline-selling operations.

In fact, the PetroSphere retail operation is entirely franchise-based, now, so although the brand is publically visible and well-known, there are also competing retail brands of petroleum products and none of them have direct affiliation with the company, which focuses on extraction, refining and distribution.

The Ardisphere was a net-exporter of crude petroleum until the 1970s, drawing on the rich oil fields of the Au River delta and offshore in the Bahía Negra, south and west of the appropriately-named city of Yacimientos Petroleros, DS. Although the nation's declining reserves mean that it is now a net-importer of crude, it remains an exporter of refined products due to the extensive capicity developed by PetroSphere. Also, PetroSphere has expanded into natural gas extraction and shale oil production, of which new, extensive reserves have been proven in the coalfield regions of the northwest part of Departamento Boreal (DB). Despite the fact that with privatization, PetroSphere lost its national monopolies in extraction and processing, through active investment and development it retains a 67% national market share in extraction and holds more than half of the country's refining capacity.
