Summary · why it matters

BAFS, or Bangkok Aviation Fuel Services Public Company Limited, informed the Stock Exchange of Thailand that an oil leak was detected 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. The pipeline belongs to BAFS Pipeline Transportation Company Limited, or BPT, a subsidiary of BAFS. It carries oil from the Bangchak refinery to the Chong Nonsi oil depot before connecting onward to the Don Mueang aviation fuel depot, the Suvarnabhumi aviation fuel depot, and the Bang Pa-in ground fuel depot, and the pipeline route passes through the area where the incident occurred. BPT has granted the right to use and manage the assets of this pipeline system, with compensation paid to Bangkok Fuel Pipeline Transportation and Logistics Company Limited, or BFPL, since January 1, 2022. At present, no severe impact has been found on the public, surrounding communities, or the environment. BPT and BFPL are coordinating closely to investigate and locate the leak and to expedite containment, with priority given to the safety of the public and communities. BAFS added that all pipeline oil transporters can still manage their oil transport as normal, so the incident has not affected aviation fuel deliveries to Don Mueang airport and Suvarnabhumi airport, or ground fuel deliveries to the northern region. Damages remain covered by the insurance policies arranged by BPT and BFPL, and the company is monitoring and tracking the situation continuously, and is ready to report further information to the Stock Exchange of Thailand if there are developments that could have a significant impact in the future.
