S-OIL Supports Safety Slogan Supplies to Establish Maritime Safety Culture

On the afternoon of the 22nd, S-OIL Ulsan Refinery delivered maritime safety relief supplies worth 15 million KRW to the Ulsan Coast Guard Station for single-person fishing vessels and small-scale fishermen in the Ulsan area.

This delivery ceremony was held as part of the "Reducing Marine Accidents Campaign" conducted by the Korea Coast Guard targeting fishermen and marine-related businesses. Attendees included Jeong Wook-han, Chief of Ulsan Coast Guard Station, Oh Seok-dong, Executive Director of S-OIL, and Gu Chun-geun, President of the Ulsan Maritime Rescue Association.

S-OIL provided 15 million KRW this year to purchase maritime safety relief supplies, and the Korea Maritime Rescue Association used S-OIL’s support funds to purchase inflatable life jackets and powder and throwable fire extinguishers.

The purchased maritime safety relief supplies will be directly delivered to small-scale fishermen based at Jinha Port, Songjeong Port, and Daesong Port in the region through the Ulsan Coast Guard Station.

The Ulsan Coast Guard Station holds annual meetings with related organizations in the Ulsan area to reduce marine accidents and establish a culture of maritime safety. At the meeting held in May this year, efforts were made to encourage marine-related businesses to participate in the campaign to reduce marine accidents and to explore measures to prevent maritime safety accidents among vulnerable groups such as single-person fishing vessels in the region.

Oh Seok-dong, Executive Director of S-OIL, stated, “S-OIL will actively participate in the Korea Coast Guard’s campaign to promote maritime safety culture and will carry out various social contribution activities tailored to the needs of local residents through public-private cooperation.”
