Fuel Stockpiling Proposal
At The Time Of DisasterEarthquakes with intensity scale upper 6 or above are increasing nation-wide after Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake.

Great East Japan Earthquake – Our Track Record 1

At the request of the Cabinet Office right after GEJE, we supported reconstruction activities in Iwate Pref. for about
three months from March 23.

Great East Japan Earthquake – Our Track Record 2

Shuwa Group donated JPY40 million, a part of kerosense sales proceeds (JPY10 per 18 liters), to Iwate Children’sEducation Fund.

Kumamoto Earthquake – Our Track Record

Supplied fuel to mobile power supply vehicles of Kyushu Electric at Uchimaki, Aso-City, Kumamoto Pref. at therequest of the Natural Resources and Energy Agency. Relief activity for about 2 weeks from April 21, 2016.

West Japan Heavy Rain – Our Track Record

Relief activity at Kure-City, Hiroshima Pref. flooded with heavy rain from July 11 to 13, 2018.

How Oil Shipment Was Restricted

Human life first priority. Then comes
recovery and reconstruction.
National and local governments
restrict shipment of valuable fuel.

 In GEJE, petroleum stockpiling
facilities and distribution equipment
like tank trucks were damaged.
 Emergency generators at telecom
and medical facilities, data centers,
major distributors, etc., stopped ina short time without fuel supply.
 Became clear that safe and reliable
fuel supply system is needed at thetime of emergency.

Shortage of Fuel at GEJE Restriction of shipment on primary
distributors.
 Tank trucks were not available in
Kato area as they were used by
the primary distributors who had
been hit in coastal line of Tohoku.
 Shortage of gasoline andkerosene not only for business use.
 Confusion spread beyond disasterarea, in Kanto area as well.

Importance Of Fuel In Emergency And Likelihood Of Disaster Within 30 Years Fuel as the “Last Fort”
Fuel reconfirmed as the mostimportant energy source that will
be used in recovery/reconstructionin the National Resilience Plan.

 Must prepare tank trucks anddrums for petroleum productdistribution in normal times, which
will be used to carry fuel toemergency power generators.
 Stockpile more than small amountof fuel in normal times inpreparation for emergency.
 Large scale oil tanks located along
coastline. Inland stockpiling safer
to avoid disaster.

Purpose of Fuel Stockpiling Proposal

Promoting defensive stockpilingof fuel for socially important
infrastructure In case of big earthquakes, long
distance delivery of fuel will
become difficult.

 In order to secure operational
continuation of important social
infrastructure, responsible entities
must defensively stockpile
necessary fuel.
 In many cases, stockpile stays
less than 3 days.
The Revised Oil Stockpiling Law
allows entrustment of fuel stockpilingto private companies.

PromotingPromotingBosai Accord with Osaka Prefectural Government
In March 2016, Shuwa signed the accord
to cooperate in supply of kerosene, etc. toevacuation centers at the time of disaster.
