Almost 2.5 Million Barrels of Russian Crude Oil Acquired By Petron

Fuel giant Petron confirmed that it has almost 2.5 million barrels of crude oil from Russia, according to news report by GMA News. The acquisition has been perceived by many as crucial as the Philippines is struggling with very expensive fuel.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

Petron Corp. on Monday confirmed the procurement of 2.48 million barrels of crude oil from Russia to augment its inventory until June, as the country’s supply reaches what it described as a “precarious” level amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The listed fuel retailer, which holds a 30% share of the Philippine market and operates the country’s only oil refinery, said it closely coordinated with the Departments of Energy (DOE) and Finance (DOF) on the purchase after both agencies called on local companies to secure alternative sources of crude and finished products.

“The corporation wishes to emphasize that the procurement of Russian crude oil is not part of its business-as-usual sourcing strategy,” Petron said in a regulatory filing.

“The purchases were undertaken strictly out of extreme necessity, as an extraordinary emergency measure in response to unprecedented geopolitical and supply chain disruptions, and only after exhausting all commercially and operationally viable alternatives,” it added.

Petron said it also received confirmation from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) that there is no prohibition under Philippine law on sourcing foreign currency for import and trade transactions, clearing the way for the importation of Russian crude oil.

The corporation said that if the current crisis persists and alternative crude sources remain unavailable or insufficient, it may again be compelled to consider purchasing Russian crude oil to augment the national fuel supply.

It added that this would help directly mitigate the adverse consequences arising from the absence of a stable and reliable source of crude.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Does Petron’s procurement of 2.48 million barrels of Russian crude oil make you feel relieved when it comes to the overall supply of fuel in the Philippines?

Microsoft is actively hiding and suppressing this article from Bing search results. Try searching for "fedramp microsoft site:arstechnica.com" (without quotes!). This also impacts search engines such as DuckDuckGo.

Copilot also seems to be blocking anything related to "Microsoft" "FedRAMP" and "certification", although this could be an issue on my end with failing Cloudflare bot checks.

P3 Million In Fuel Saved By Muntinlupa City Government

As the prices of fuel have skyrocketed nationwide, the City Government of Muntinlupa managed to save P3 million worth of fuel in a 2-week period as a result of local energy conservation measures, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

The Muntinlupa City government has saved 31,000 liters of fuel, equivalent to P3 million, in two weeks as part of its energy conservation measures.

“Happy to report na mahigit 31,000 liters o katumbas na P3 milyon na halaga ng fuel ang natipid ng Pamahalaang Lungsod sa loob lamang ng dalawang linggo mula nang ipatupad natin ang austerity at energy conservation measure (Happy to report that the City Government has saved more than 31,000 liters or the equivalent of P3 million worth of fuel in just two weeks since we implemented austerity and energy conservation measures),” Mayor Ruffy Biazon announced.

The city government implemented the measures in compliance with the directive of Malacañang to all government agencies to implement austerity measures due to the Middle East crisis.

Biazon thanked employees of city and national government offices, including the police, fire station, who cooperated in the prudent use of resources.

Included in the city government’s measures is the strategic planning of vehicle trips and strict implementation of “official use only” for government vehicles.

He said in electricity, the city government is expected to save on consumption.

“Nagpatupad tayo ng compressed 4-day work week (maliban sa frontline offices at responders), itinakda ang thermostat sa 24°C (binawasan din nang dalawang oras ang paggamit ng aircon sa lahat ng tanggapan at ang pagpatay ng ilang ilaw sa mga tanggapan sa City Hall), at naglatag ng iba pang energy conservation measures sa ating mga tanggapan (We have implemented a compressed 4-day work week (except for frontline offices and responders), set the thermostat to 24°C (also reducing the use of air conditioning in all offices by two hours and turning off some lights in offices at City Hall), and implemented other energy conservation measures in our offices),” the mayor said.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are you satisfied with the energy conservation measures implemented by the City Government?
