Dumating na unang diesel shipment na 142,000 barrels sa Luzon

Inihayag ng Department of Energy (DOE) ang pagdating ng 142,000 barrels ng diesel sa Luzon noong Martes, Marso 26, 2026, bilang unang delivery sa ilalim ng Emergency Energy Security Program. Sinabi ni Energy Secretary Sharon Garin na ito ay resulta ng pagsisikap ng pamahalaan upang mapalakas ang suplay ng gasolina. Gayunpaman, ayon sa kalkulasyon batay sa data ng DOE, sapat lamang ito para sa isang araw na pangangailangan.

Noong Martes, Marso 26, ipinahayag ng DOE ang pagdating ng 22.5 milyong litro o 142,000 barrels ng diesel mula sa isang tanker sa isang pantalan sa Luzon. "Andito na! Government-procured diesel has arrived in Luzon. This is the first delivery and there will be more deliveries in the coming days or weeks," ani Garin sa kanyang Facebook post na muling ibinahagi ng DOE.

Dagdag pa niya, "We’ve been working on this for three weeks, so to me, it looks like the most beautiful ship ever."

Ito ang unang shipment sa ilalim ng programang Emergency Energy Security Program, na pinamamahalaan ng Philippine National Oil Company (PNOC) at PNOC Exploration Corporation, na tumutugon para sa 1 milyong barrels ng langis.

Noong Biyernes, Marso 27, sinabi ni Garin na ito ay bunga ng trabaho ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. at Petron CEO Ramon Ang. Ayon kay Marcos, sapat ang suplay ng crude oil hanggang Hunyo 30, 2026.

Batay sa data ng DOE para sa 2024, araw-araw na pangangailangan ng diesel ay 201,927 barrels, kaya hindi sapat ang 142,000 barrels para sa isang buong araw, ayon sa ekonomistang si JC Punongbayan. Samantala, sinabi ni Ang na makakapagbigay ang Petron ng suplay hanggang Hunyo 30, na may market share na 27.8%.

Tumaas sa 425 ang mga gasolinahan na pansamantalang sarado noong Marso 27 mula sa 387, ayon sa Philippine National Police.
