LAUGFS Gas ensures continuous supply of LP Gas

LAUGFS Gas is currently operating at maximum capacity, filling and distributing its LP Gas cylinders islandwide to restore the current market supply. In the recent past, the market supply was challenged due to several macro-environmental factors.

By resolving most of the financial challenges created from the macroeconomic outset, LAUGFS Gas was able secure adequate LC facilities to import LPG to the country. The LAUGFS Gas filling terminal and storage complex located in Hambantota port can store up to 30,000 metric tonnes of LP Gas and currently, sufficient stocks have been maintained for domestic, commercial, and industrial consumption. Further, there are few ships carrying LP Gas to reach local shores in the coming weeks, the company noted in a media release.

LP Gas cylinders for domestic consumers as well as hotels and restaurants can now be purchased through island-wide LAUGFS Gas dealers. The required stocks are issued daily from Mabima and Hambantota filling facilities to 31 distributors and re-distribution operations are resumed in all parts of the country by catering to over 10,000 dealers.

LAUGFS Gas says LP Gas will be supplied in bulk to the factories of the industrial sector in this country without any hindrance and for the upcoming year end period while special delivery schedules have been operationalised to provide adequate stocks to all industrial facilities to boost up their productions.
