Major General Le Van Dang, Deputy Director of the Department of Operations under the General Staff of the Vietnam People’s Army, attended and directed the event.
In 2026, the Military Petroleum Corporation is the first defense and security enterprise to conduct such exercise. This large-scale drill mobilized a wide array of technical vehicles and supplies. The construction and installation process required high technical standards and was conducted in complex terrain and harsh weather conditions, demanding tremendous effort and resolve from officers, soldiers, and friendly units.

During the event, delegates watched a video summarizing the unit’s functions, its task performance during various phases of the exercise. They also observed site surveys and construction plans for cross-mountain pipelines, pumping stations, and field depots. Additionally, delegates toured facilities and witnessed a simulated field pipeline deployment.
In the live-action segment, the field unit constructed a cross-river pipeline section. Different components coordinated smoothly to complete the construction, connect the entire line, and stand ready for petroleum pumping. During this process, the unit effectively handled simulated scenarios, including a punctured petroleum pipeline and a specialized vehicle catching fire at the distribution rig. Thanks to the careful preparation, seamless coordination, and timely command, the unit swiftly resolved all incidents, demonstrating excellent firefighting and rescue capabilities.
The exercise completed all planned contents, achieving its set objectives while ensuring absolute safety for personnel and equipment. It provided an opportunity to test the corporation’s response plans, hone organizational and command capabilities, and ensure petroleum supply readiness in all situations.
