Seaoil now carries Euro 4 gasoline, Euro 5 diesel fuels - Industry News

Seaoil, the Philippines' largest independent petroleum company, is now carrying Euro 4 and Euro 5 fuels, making it one of the few local oil companies that have adapted to the emission standard that is scheduled to be implemented by the country in 2016.

This was revealed by Seaoil Philippines president and chief executive Francis Glenn Yu at today's launch ceremony of the petroleum company's partnership with the STP brand of fuel additives.

"All our fuels are either Euro 4 or Euro 5," said Yu when asked if Seaoil carries Euro 2 fuels. "The Philippines is only Euro 2 because that's the minimum or base fuel quality required by our country."

We asked the petroleum company's marketing director, Art Cruz, what the Euro 4 and 5 products are, and we were told that Seaoil's gasoline products--Extreme 97, Extreme 5 and Extreme U--are now all of Euro 4 quality, while the company's Exceed diesel is Euro 5.

Let's hope more oil companies follow Unioil and Seaoil's lead in going all Euro 4 across all their products without having to be told by the government.

Seaoil is quick to the draw in saying their additives are safe via a big banner on their website. From memory they used to sell Euro 4 stuff already some time ago, but reverted back to Euro 3? and now back to 4/5 again.

Ang sabi daw yung exceed diesel ng seaoil ay euro3 complaint + STP additives = euro5 performance. Not sure kung mas ok yan kesa sa euro4 ng Unioil. :confused:

Di naman siguro. I don't think additives will lessen the sulfur content. Better for me at least may ibang options na. Ang layo ng nearest Unioil sa amin.

If additives can make euro 5 fuels, sana nagbenta nalan ng additives sa market. I highly doubt its just as simple as mixing the stp additives. Marketing lang yan ng seaoil. Euro 3 pa din yan. When I inquired from them way back when they reverted back to eu3, their reply was that they add additives nga daw to make it euro 4. (I have a copy of their reply). Now this was almost a year ago. Bakit ngayon lang nila minamarket? Dahil ba they are losing an advantage to other real euro 4 importers? In short, I think nothing has changed the last time I inquired except for their current marketing plan.

I checked their website, specifically the diesel page and it says euro 5 performance. Why "performance?" Does it mean it complies with the euro 5 standard? Very suspicious..

It's better to call them para malaman kung Euro 5 diesel nga o hindi. Still, better than the Big 3 IMO.

Euro 5 standard should mean lesser sulfur. The fact that they used the word performance instead of standard could be a marketing ploy to make people think it's actually Euro 5 standard.

Imho sir euro3 diesel nila pero using additive they can claim euro5 performance. I think certificate of whatever na lang kailangan nila for euro5.

You cannot turn diesel from Euro 3 to Euro 5 just by using additives. It's in the refining process that makes it Euro 5.
