PetroCard Systems Expands Mobile Fueling Services to Oregon

SEATTLE--PetroCard Systems, Inc. (PetroCard), a leading fuels and lubrication distributor in the Pacific Northwest, announced today it has brought its mobile fueling service in-house and under its own brand to have end-to-end control of the quality and reliability of service. PetroCard employees will now deliver and fuel commercial vehicles parked at depots or other lots from rigs owned and operated by PetroCard, rather than via independent contractors. The company’s mobile fueling service delivers more than 125,000 gallons per month of diesel fuel to the Oregon market.

“Our customers in Oregon asked us for an integrated mobile fueling solution in addition to our cardlock services. To meet those demands we have brought all of our services in the Oregon market under the PetroCard brand,” said Steve Tolton, CEO of PetroCard. “We place the highest premium on quality of service to our customers and now we have more control of that.”

Following the company’s recent acquisition of Estacada Oil and Northwest Petroleum, PetroCard now maintains three office locations in Oregon, which will support the new mobile fueling operations.

PetroCard currently offers fuel services via three primary methods: via mobile fueling, via “cardlocks,” or unattended, self-serve fueling stations and as well as via delivery to bulk fuel tanks. PetroCard is one of the largest cardlock operators in the Pacific Northwest. In addition to its fuel services, PetroCard Systems currently sells lubricants to many different classes of trades such as retail chains, wholesale operations, automotive installers, commercial and heavy-duty fleets out of its two offices located in Arlington and Spokane, Washington and now Clackamas, Oregon. PetroCard is the largest ExxonMobil distributor in Washington State.
