Mathieu advised drivers to "go and fill up with gasoline, because soon there will be some. The Petroineos refinery in Lavere, near Marseille, will be closed "as of Monday," the candidate to succeed Philippe Martinez at the head of the General Confederation of Labor throughout France indicated.

Other refineries in the country are also expected to shut down in the coming days. TotalEnergies in Normandy, where employees are on strike but supplies continue, "will be shut down" as of this weekend, Eric Sellini, CGT coordinator at the oil group, said March 17. "Employees have raised their voices" and "major units will begin stopping tomorrow," so " the refinery will be shut down this weekend or Monday at the latest."
