STREICHER MOBILE FUELING, INC. (NASDAQ: FUEL and FUELW)
(the "Company"), a leading provider of petroleum product distribution
services, transportation logistics and emergency response services to
the trucking, construction, utility, energy, chemical, manufacturing
and government service industries today announced that it has
mobilized equipment and personnel in an immediate response to
Hurricane Wilma which devastated South Florida on Monday, October 24,
2005.
Richard E. Gathright, President and CEO commented, "Hurricane
Wilma which swept across South Florida on Monday has disrupted the
lives of millions of people and the operations of thousands of
businesses across the region. Our sympathies go out to those impacted
by this storm, including many of our own personnel. While Broward
County and Fort Lauderdale, our corporate home, were especially hard
hit by the hurricane, the Company's equipment and facilities,
including our corporate offices, were not physically damaged, and we
are operating at full capacity to meet the needs of our customers, and
emergency service providers throughout the affected region."
"We have relocated additional equipment and personnel from other
Company locations to support our relief operations in South Florida
which are expected to continue for many weeks. At the same time, we
are continuing to support the Hurricane Katrina and Rita restoration
work in Louisiana and Texas. The Company's acquisitions of Shank
Services earlier this year and H & W Petroleum this month have
enhanced our ability to provide storm relief and restoration support,
regionally and nationally. Experienced Shank Services personnel are on
the ground in South Florida with specialized fueling equipment while
its heavy haul units are being used to ferry fuel tanks and other
equipment to the devastated areas. H & W's transports are providing
the Company additional capacity to move to South Florida fuel supplies
which are not currently available from Port Everglades in Ft.
Lauderdale."
As we saw last year when four hurricanes hit various parts of
Florida, and again this year with Dennis, Katrina and Rita along the
Gulf Coast, our personnel have again stepped up to the challenge of
keeping critical fuel deliveries moving. For 22 years, we have
provided storm response services, starting in our own backyard.
Whether Hurricane Andrew in 1992 or Wilma, this week, we remain
committed to providing the highest level of support possible in these
relief efforts while delivering to our customers the service they need
and expect."
