HOUSTON and TACOMA, Wash. (May 20, 2010) - U.S. Bank Voyager Fleet Systems Inc., a provider of universal fleet fueling and maintenance cards, is expanding its Voyager Channel Partner Program with the addition of Tacoma, Wash.-based Pettit Oil.

The latest Voyager Channel Partner to date, Pettit Oil will begin issuing co-branded fleet cards for its customers to use at its retail locations in western Washington and at any of the 230,000 Voyager fuel and maintenance acceptance locations throughout the United States.
