Published on 31/07/2024
» Following the continuous gathering of workers along Sukhumvit Road in front of Thai Oil’s Refinery in Si Racha District, Chonburi Province from 24 – 26 July 2024, due to non-payment from contractors, an inquiry by Thai Oil Public Company Limited (the “Company”) revealed that the workers are employees of One Turn Ten Company Limited (“One Turn Ten”), EMCO LTD (Thailand) Company Limited (“EMCO”), and Thai Fong Engineering and Construction Company Limited (“Thai Fong”). These three companies are subcontractors of Sinopec Engineering Group (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (“Sinopec”), which in turn is a subcontractor of the Unincorporated Joint Venture of Petrofac South East Asia Pte. Ltd. (“Petrofac”), Saipem Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“Saipem”), and Samsung E&A (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (formerly Samsung Engineering (Thailand) Co., Ltd.) (“Samsung”) (collectively, the “UJV”). The UJV is the main contractor for the construction of the Clean Fuel Project (CFP) for the Company, and the workers have gathered to demand payment for their services from the three companies (One Turn Ten, EMCO, Thai Fong), as well as from Sinopec and the UJV. The three companies did not receive payment from Sinopec, and Sinopec itself has not received payment as per the relevant subcontract from the UJV, leading to Sinopec’s inability to pay the subcontractors, including the aforementioned three companies.
