Mobil Oil Fiji is donating fuel to assist the Ministry of Health and Fiji Police in carrying out activities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mobil Lead Country Manager Adi Tamara says the Mobil team wanted to support the response to COVID-19 and help keep Fijians safe.

He says Mobil has an important role to play in continuing to supply essential energy to Fiji throughout the pandemic and they are working hard throughout to keep fuel flowing to service stations and other essential businesses and facilities.

Tamara says he is very pleased that they have been able to provide fuel to our first responders, who also had to deal with the additional strain of managing impacts from the recent Tropical Cyclone Harold.

Tamara says they hope that this fuel donation will assist in carrying out important tasks such as contact tracing of community members who have recently arrived in Fiji, or those who may have come into contact with someone who has tested positive for the disease.

He says the Mobil team has put in place strict measures to ensure members of its workforce are kept safe and fuel can continue flowing to Fiji throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tamara says throughout the COVID-19 pandemic there have been no disruptions to Mobil’s fuel supplies in Fiji, despite the challenges that the situation has presented to its operations and the broader community.
