LPG cylinders are supplied from LPG Bottling plants situated at Kochi Refinery, Kazhakuttam-Trivandrum and LPG bottling plants from Neighbouring States of Tamilnadu and Karnataka to take care of Kerala state requirements. During Pandemic times, LPG Bottling plants follow all SOP for preventing the pandemic in the plant. Our plant was operating during the entire period of total lockdown to ensure that there was no scarcity of cooking gas. Our truck crews are on continuous duty for carrying LPG cylinders to distributorship network. As soon as the lockdown was declared, the transport crew was given a brief on the SOP to be followed to ensure that there is no spread of the pandemic. They were served with free meal, sanitizer and masks. Another challenge was to get food for them en – route where dhaba and hotels were closed. BPC Retail Outlets came forward for providing a place to our drivers to cook food, take rest and have bath. Our delivery boys continued their work as usual reaching to every customer, be it in urban areas or at remote villages including Island areas. Wearing mask and gloves, maintaining social distancing and using sanitizers frequently all our delivery boys delivered cylinders at the doorstep of the customers. Bharat Petroleum provides Bharat Arogya Yojana and  Exgratia scheme for compensation in case of any eventuality due to COVID pandemic to our Corona Warriors.
