Petron fully restores operations in typhoon-battered areas

Leading oil firm Petron Corp. is fully back on its toes in the operations of its terminals and gasoline stations in the areas pummelled by Typhoon Odette during the Christmas holidays.“All stations that sustained damages in Visayas and Mindanao have been fully restored and operational less than a month since the onslaught of typhoon Odette,” the oil firm announced.

Nevertheless, the oil firm said that “repair works are still ongoing in a few more stations in Bohol, Cebu and Siargao” because these have been the hardest hit areas during the strongest typhoon that hammered the country last year. To date, the company indicated that close coordination with its dealers is carried out to guarantee “order and compliance” in the return-to-operation of its stations.

The oil firm said that it keenly supported meeting fuel demand in the typhoon-hit areas, primarily to aid government agencies on critical recovery and clearing efforts. It also met the fuel needs of hospitals, power plants, airports, water systems as well as other infrastructure facilities as they return to operation and bounce back from the heavy blow of the disaster.
