Any advice would be appreciated

Do you have any interest in the gas industry?

I know what you mean Tara,

Most of the time, writing about something you don’t really like or understand can be hard as hell. But, it doesn’t have to be impossible.

In your case, you should get familiarized with the classic structure of a press release and try to connect the information you received through those bullet points with the main parts of a press release.

It is one thing not to understand in depth what you are told, and another thing not to understand a word from what you are reading. You should be able to distinguish:

The story you must write about;
The essential parts of any story/news worthy subject: who, what, where, when, why and how;
Quotes you can use to support your story;
And a call to action in line with the purpose of sharing that story…

Then you are pretty much good to go.

Now I have no clue about the bullet points you received, but isn’t any way you could research more on the web, if your manager is dump enough to assume that you need nothing more than what he already gave you?

research about it, you can probably watch youtube videos about it.

You're not. Your manager sounds like a moron. You have to get into the subject material to do a good job. Unless, he just wants you to write fluff.

Then, it's up to you to decide whether you want to submit yourself to doing something which will turn you into a mediocre writer.

Hi there,
First of all research, research, research. Second of all, you should really get more information on the subject from your manager. The phrase @BigFrank said might work: "I am a magician, but I am NOT a mind reader." If your manager is not able to answer your questions, then maybe you can find someone else who can. Get all the information you need before proceeding to the actual writing.

If you can't obtain any, then the only thing left is to stick to those bullet points, expand on them a little bit and try to embellish them into a press release and that's it. It's not really your fault that you weren't given enough information. This way, they'll know that next time, if they want something better, they must supply you with more details.

Best,

If you're still working on your project, maybe this will help. If not, then maybe it will help in the future. I've been a freelance writer for quite some time now and, more often than not, I am asked to write something on a subject I know little about or have little interest in. I have a difficult time staying focused on stuff I have no interest in, so I found a system that works for me.
I make a list of the relevant topics for the piece I am working on and put them in an order that makes sense to me. Once that's done I research each individual topic and write the most relevant information for each one. After that I put the content together and tweak it here and there so it all flows together.
There are a host of websites that have the info you need. It just may take a minute to find just what you need. You can search for industry related sites and forums. Forums will give you a good idea of what people are talking about and wanting.
You say you have bullet points so that is great. You have a list of the points you need to make. Do a thorough search for each of the bullet points and write the content for each one. Look up tips n tricks for successful press releases and follow the advice. Once you find the info you need and the proper layout to deliver the content, you should be good to go. When your done, edit your work and refine it, and I always like to check my works authenticity. Sometime we take in so much info we can spit it out like it's our own and not even realize it. Grammarly or copyscape are good places to check your work. Your next project will be easy peasy...
