What Caused the Trinity Petroleum Management Data Breach?

The Trinity Petroleum Management data breach was only recently announced, and more information is expected in the near future. At this point, Trinity Petroleum does not appear to have posted a website notice or issued a press release discussing the incident, and the company’s filing with the Attorney General of Texas provides only information on what led up to the breach.

However, according to the available information, Trinity Petroleum recently completed an investigation into a data security incident. Through this investigation, Trinity Petroleum confirmed that an unauthorized party had been able to access certain confidential information that had been provided to the company.

It is important to keep in mind that this doesn’t necessarily mean that Trinity Petroleum was the victim of the breach. It’s also possible that Trinity Petroleum is reporting a third-party data breach that occurred at one of its vendors or partner companies.

Either way, after learning that sensitive consumer data was accessible to an unauthorized party, Trinity Petroleum Management reviewed the compromised files to determine what information was leaked and which consumers were impacted. While the breached information varies depending on the individual, it may include your name, address, and Social Security number.

On March 13, 2025, Trinity Petroleum Management submitted notice of the breach to the Attorney General of Texas. Often, this is around the time that companies will send data breach letters to anyone who was affected by the incident; however, Trinity Petroleum may be operating on a different schedule. Regardless, once sent, these letters should contain additional information on what led up to the breach and provide victims with a list of what information belonging to them was compromised.
