OilShield

About OilShield

OilShield is a specialist insurance and risk management brand built exclusively for the fuel oil distribution industry. Born from a strategic partnership between Evergreen Insurance Services and Compass Environmental Consultancy — with backing from Aviva — OilShield brings together decades of sector-specific knowledge to address the very real and often overlooked risks that fuel oil distributors face every day.

A Solution Built for the Industry

Every year, millions of oil deliveries are made to homes and businesses across the country. Each one of those deliveries represents an opportunity for operational, environmental, or liability risk. OilShield was founded on the recognition that generic commercial insurance policies simply do not go far enough for this sector. The result is a purpose-built protection package designed around the day-to-day realities of fuel oil distribution — from spill liability and environmental remediation to vehicle and premises coverage.

Over 25 Years of Combined Expertise

What sets OilShield apart is the depth of experience behind it. With a combined track record of more than 25 years working alongside fuel oil distributors of all sizes — from independent operators to large regional fleets — the team behind OilShield understands the nuances that matter most when a claim arises. Their environmental consultancy background means that risk is not just transferred through a policy; it is actively identified, assessed, and managed before it becomes a problem.

Comprehensive Coverage for Fuel Oil Distributors

OilShield's offering is structured as a complete protection package, meaning distributors do not need to stitch together multiple policies from different providers. Key areas of coverage are designed to work in concert, ensuring there are no gaps when it counts. This integrated approach is particularly valuable in an industry where environmental incidents can trigger cascading regulatory, legal, and remediation costs simultaneously.

Headquartered in Surrey, England, OilShield operates as a privately held company with a focused mission: to be the definitive insurance solution for the fuel oil distribution sector. Whether you operate a small local delivery business or manage a large distribution network, OilShield's tailored approach is built to scale with the complexity of your operations.
