Petroleum distribution companies in the UAE are not providing vehicle fuel delivery outside of their service stations

Abu Dhabi, Dubai-UAE: 18 May, 2016 –  Abu Dhabi National Oil Distribution Company (ADNOC Distribution), Emirates General Petroleum Corporation (Emarat) and Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC) confirm that news reports recently published on some websites and social media platforms announcing the launch of a new fuel delivery service in the UAE are false.

This statement comes after tracking fuel delivery advertisements circulating on websites and social media channels that promise delivery of petroleum outside of service stations to homes or work sites. Such practices require a comprehensive study into the safety implications for society and the environment, as well as ensuring strict standards and measures are adhered to when fuel is transported and filled from outside the dedicated service stations.

ADNOC Distribution, Emarat and ENOC, the authorised organisations for marketing and distribution of petroleum products in the UAE, are inviting all customers, news portal editors as well as social media users to be more accurate and seek confirmation from valid authorities before sharing or publishing information.
