Drew Marlowe is your first UP contact as well as the Manager of the UP Oil Depot, located a few blocks from the HQ itself. He gives you the mission to recapture the Altagracia Outpost and gives you your first look at UP's weapon/vehicles/airstrikes shop. His command structure (where you go to talk to him) is also ironically on China's target list, should you take their offer to wipe Universal Petroleum's operations off the map.
