BHPetrol Euro 5 diesel now available at 100 stations

BHPetrol Euro 5 Diesel, marketed by Boustead Petroleum Marketing Sdn Bhd (BHPetrol), is now available at 100 stations in Peninsular Malaysia.

"The BHPetrol Euro 5 Diesel is the first ultra clean fuel for diesel vehicles in Malaysia with an extremely low sulphur content compared to Euro2M.

"With less sulphur and an advanced formulation, the BHPetrol Euro 5 Diesel enables modern diesel engines to run at their best while also enhancing the efficiency of older diesel engines," BHPetrol Retail Director James Khoo said in a statement today.

Being the first oil and gas company to introduce Euro5 Diesel in Malaysia in Johor in November 2014, and subsequently making them available in the Klang Valley in August 2015, the fuel is now available in Melaka, Perak, Penang, Kedah and Pahang.

"We're adding more stations all the time and we have already reached the 100 mark in mid-July with the commencement of sales at BHPetrol Mukim Kuantan located on the way to Kuantan airport," said Khoo.

BHPetrol said although the current exhaust emission regulations for diesel vehicles in Malaysia did not specify to the Euro 5 standard, the availability of the fuel is encouraging car companies to offer the latest diesel models which have more advanced and more environment-friendly engines.

Such engines require ultra-clean fuel – like BHPetrol Euro 5 Diesel – in order to run without problems.
