It also stated that a representative of the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) was on ground to witness the entire process.

According to the firm, the routine fire drill was apparently mistaken to be a gas leak in its facility which it said was not the case. Rainoil called on the community and other stakeholders to dispel the gas leakage rumors as the depot has since resumed operations following the fire safety drill.

‘We will continue to ensure that all safety measures are in place in all our Operations. We are safety conscious and remain committed to the safety of our community and the environment’.
