Tankers carrying fuel carrying fuel to Bharat Petroleum Corporation LTD (BPCL) are on strike and require the new transport offer to be downloaded. About 150 tankers carrying gasoline, diesel, lubricant and air fuel from the ENNORE terminal began from Saturday.
This led the inventory disturbances in part of the fuel retail stores in several places, the sources of the oil industry said. “There is a partial drying of bunk beds. Although stores that own tankers help those who do not have vehicles are not enough. From tomorrow tanker owners say that they will not allow tankers owned by bunk beds,” the retailer said.
E. Moorthy, President, Chennai Asanur, oil tanker associations, said that on Thursday and Friday, the current rates for transport offers will continue or raise rates in a new selection. “During the Covid-19 we were hit seriously, and also when the company’s terminal was moved from Tondiarpet to Ennore. Business was not bad only in the last two years,” he said.
The Secretary General of the Association K. Velu said that the company mobilizes the tankers of Asanuro. “We also asked for them. They will not be for Chennai.
A. Nasar, a common secretary of the association, said that air reserves that were partially stopped would be completely stopped from Tuesday if the company did not create a committee for the determination of transport rates. “The rates in this new offer hovering in September last year are 15% less than current rates. We are all in a deep debt and a reduction in rates would mean mortality for this industry,” he added.
