Following the successful launch of its Euro 4 gasoline products in June, market leader Petron Corporation announced its diesel products, Turbo Diesel and DieselMax, now meet global Euro 4 fuel standards.

With this, Petron marks an industry first as the only oil company capable of locally producing a full range of premium fuels that meet the cleaner and more efficient Euro 4 global standard.

Petron’s four Euro 4 gasoline variants—Blaze 100 Euro 4 (RON 100), XCS (RON 95), Xtra Advance (RON 93), and Super Xtra (RON 91)—are available nationwide.

Euro 4 is a globally–accepted European emission standard for vehicles which require significantly low amount of sulfur (0.005% or 50 parts per million) and benzene (maximum of 1% by volume).

“We are proud that all of Petron’s Euro 4 fuels are made in the Philippines and are specially formulated to meet the unique needs of our customers. We can guarantee the quality and properties of our fuels since we produce them here, formulate them here, and test them here,” Petron President and CEO Ramon S. Ang said.

All Petron Euro 4 fuels boast of better engine protection, better mileage, and better power over other Euro 2 fuels. Petron fuels are locally produced at its refinery in Bataan and formulated for Philippine driving conditions. Petron also operates a fuel additives blending plant in Subic Bay in partnership with Innospec, a leading global fuel specialties company. The plant supplies tailor-fit additives for Petron’s six fuel variants—the most extensive in the local oil industry.

Petron invested USD 2-billion to further upgrade its Bataan Refinery and make it at par with the most advanced refineries in the region. Dubbed the Refinery Master Plan-2 (RMP-2), Petron can now produce more higher-value products such as gasoline and petrochemicals while eliminating negative margin fuel oil.

Petron takes industry lead with production of Euro-4 Gasolines

Market leader Petron Corporation achieved an industry first as it announced today all gasoline variants produced at its Bataan refinery are now Euro-4 compliant. The Euro-4 gasoline products are now available in Petron service stations in Mega Manila and will soon be available nationwide, meeting the government’s mandate ahead of schedule.

Petron, which pioneered the first locally-produced Euro-4 premium plus gasoline in the Philippines, Blaze 100 Euro-4, is also the first company to locally produce a full line-up of gasoline variants that meet Euro-4 standards. This is six months ahead of the government mandate to make available Euro-4 fuels by January 2016.

Petron has four gasoline variants – the most extensive in the industry – namely Blaze 100 Euro 4 (RON 100), XCS (RON 95), Xtra Advance (RON 93), and Super Xtra (RON 91). All Petron Euro-4 gasolines, with world-class additives, ensure engine cleanliness and efficient combustion for optimum engine performance and improved fuel economy.

Euro-4 is a globally-accepted European emission standard for vehicles, which require fuel with significantly low amounts of sulfur (0.005% or 50 parts per million) and benzene (maximum of 1% by volume). Reduced sulfur and benzene content in gasoline makes fuels more environment-friendly, as vehicles release less harmful emissions.

The Company added that Blaze 100 Euro 4 even exceed Euro-4 global standards. Introduced in July 2013, two-and-a-half years ahead of the mandate, this premium gasoline has a sulfur content of less than 35 parts per million and 1% benzene content, superior than the Euro-4 standard.

“The local production of various gasoline grades under this global fuel standard is another milestone in the oil industry. These products are proudly Philippine-made,” Petron President and Chief Executive Officer Ramon S. Ang said. “As the pacesetter in the industry, we hope that this encourages other players to follow suit.”

“More importantly, our launch of a complete line-up of Euro 4 gasoline products affirms our commitment to introduce fuels relevant to consumers while reducing our environmental footprint,” Mr. Ang added.

Petron’s early compliance was made possible by its massive US$2-billion upgrade at its Bataan refinery which increases its local production of gasoline, diesel, and petrochemicals and also allows the production of Euro-4 fuels.

The Company said it will start the domestic production of Euro-4 compliant diesel products soon.
