Nepal Oil Corporation Urges Public Not to Hoard LPG Gas Amid Supply Assurance
Kathmandu. The Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC) has urged consumers not to unnecessarily stock up on LPG gas. The corporation believes that some market issues have arisen due to consumers starting to hoard gas following rumors of a shortage.
NOC Managing Director Chandika Bhatta stated that gas is being imported from India in quantities exceeding demand. He informed that arrangements are in place to ensure continuous gas supply throughout the upcoming election period as well.
According to Bhatta, the loading of LPG gas imported through the Oil Corporation over the last three days was 118 bullets (149,500 cylinders) on Saturday, 115 bullets (145,700 cylinders) on Monday, and 132 bullets (167,300 cylinders) on Tuesday. He added that some of these bullets are still en route and will enter Nepal soon.
