Case Study: Bahrain Petroleum Company achieves reliable 24/7 petrol station backup power with Cummins standby generators

Bahrain Petroleum Company keeps 12 petrol stations running 24/7 with Cummins backup power

The Bahrain Petroleum Company (bapco) required a robust standby power solution for its network of petrol stations to ensure 24/7 operation and protect against grid failures exacerbated by Bahrain's extreme heat and dusty conditions. To meet this challenge, bapco partnered with vendor Cummins and its local distributor, YBA Kanoo Machinery, to install custom-engineered Cummins diesel generator sets across 12 sites.

Cummins, through its distributor, implemented a tailored solution involving 13 generator sets designed with advanced cooling, filtration, and dust-proofing to withstand the harsh climate. The solution included supply, installation, testing, and commissioning, followed by a comprehensive maintenance and warranty package. This provided bapco with automatic, reliable backup power, minimizing downtime and operational risk while ensuring business continuity across its retail network.
