Petroleum Product Quality Assurance
[su_divider top=”no” size=”1″]
We take necessary steps to ensure that our petroleum products meet global and regional import/export specification. Our petroleum product batches are either sourced directly from NNPC, sourced directly from indigenous companies or imported.
We perform lab tests on our petroleum products before we dispatch an order. Offshore deliveries are done using barge or vessel to the approved location/site. Further Q&Q tests (including bacteria culture) will be carried out on products at the point of delivery to confirm that they have not picked up contaminants.
