Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation (Pilipinas Shell) and Northern Star Energy Corporation (Northern Star) have inked a deal to transform Northern Star's existing sites in the area, into Shell-branded Mobility stations. More than just a fuel site, the Shell Mobility station is a `destination' that promises to create better customer journey experiences with an expanded range of products, full vehicle servicing, and even retail/lifestyle and food offerings targeted to each local market. The partnership adds no less than 100 sites in Pilipinas Shell's nationwide portfolio throughout the expected life of the deal.

These Mobility sites will support the increasing travel and economic activity in Baguio City, Sagada, Banaue, La Union, Pagudpud and other tourist hotspots in the region. The growth in Pilipinas Shell's Mobility business will be adequately supported by the Subic import terminal, with a 54ML storage capacity. Pilipinas Shell and Northern Star will work together for the seamless integration of operational practices in alignment with Shell standards.

According to del Valle, Pilipinas Shell is looking forward to applying Northern Star's strong operational excellence and expertise as demonstrated through speedy and consistent site growth and best practices.
