April 12, Colombo (LNW): The Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) has announced a series of measures to ensure that there is no disruption in fuel supply during the Sinhala and Tamil New Year festivities. Recognizing the increased demand typical of this season, the CPC has proactively increased its fuel imports to secure ample stocks.
Filling station owners have been instructed on these provisions to guarantee smooth operations at Ceypetco stations across the country. Moreover, to streamline the process for distributors and alleviate any potential financial constraints during this peak period, the CPC has enabled transactions through cheques until April 15.
To support these efforts, the Ceylon Petroleum Storage Terminals Ltd. will be deploying additional tankers to facilitate efficient fuel distribution, ensuring that both local residents and holidaymakers can enjoy uninterrupted travel during the festive season.
