Summary · why it matters

BAFS, or Bangkok Aviation Fuel Services Public Company Limited, has notified the Stock Exchange of Thailand that an oil leak was detected in the Fuel Road area beneath the Rama III elevated road on the evening of September 8, 2026, and that it immediately ordered a halt to oil transport through the pipeline system in that area, while accelerating an investigation to locate the leak point and contain the incident. The pipeline system belongs to BAFS Pipeline Transportation Company Limited, or BPT, a subsidiary of BAFS, and links oil transport from the Bangchak refinery and the Chong Nonsi oil depot to the Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi aviation fuel depots and the Bang Pa-in oil depot. Currently, BPT and Bangkok Fuel Pipeline Transportation and Logistics Company Limited, or BFPL, which has held the right to use and manage the pipeline system since January 1, 2022, are urgently investigating and searching for the leak point. Initially, no severe impact has been found on the public, surrounding communities, or the environment. BAFS stated that pipeline oil transport operators can still manage oil transport as normal, so there has been no impact on aviation fuel transport to Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports, or on ground oil transport to the northern region. Damage from the incident remains covered by insurance policies, and the company will monitor the situation closely and further notify the Stock Exchange of Thailand if there are developments that could have a material impact.
