The Importance of Oil During Disasters: Oil Shortage in the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11
Oil is the last bastion! An explanation of the importance of oil during disasters.
Shipping restrictions from the primary oil manufacturers. Due to the disaster along the Tohoku coast, we were unable to secure tankers in the Kanto region at the request of the primary oil manufacturers. There is a shortage of petroleum products such as gasoline and kerosene, affecting not only the disaster-stricken areas but also causing significant chaos in the Kanto region. Oil has been reaffirmed as "the most important energy source for ongoing recovery and reconstruction efforts." [Overview] - It is necessary to prepare tankers and drums for the delivery of petroleum products during normal times to be used as fuel for emergency generators. - Considering emergencies, it is necessary to store small amounts of petroleum fuel during normal times. - Large-scale oil tanks are mostly located along the coast, which poses a high disaster risk, making fuel storage in inland areas safer. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
