Photo: Reuters ISLAMABAD: Pakistan?s state oil and gas regulator said on Thursday it will investigate a complaint that fuel suppliers, including local subsidiaries of Shell and Total as well as Pakistan State Oil (PSO), have added manganese to their gasoline. Honda Motor Co?s Pakistan subsidiary, Honda Atlas Cars (Pakistan) Limited, filed the complaint, saying the harmful additive appeared to be damaging the engines in its vehicles. Manganese can be added to fuel to make it appear to be of a higher quality, but it can reduce fuel economy as well as potentially harm public health due to emissions. ?We have received a complaint from Honda, and the relevant department will look into the issue,? said Imran Ghaznavi, a spokesperson for the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA). The Honda complaint, a copy of which was reviewed by Reuters, said tests had found dangerous levels of manganese in fuel samples from Shell Pakistan Limited, Total Parco Pakistan Limited, and Pakistan State Oil Company Limited. The tests showed levels of manganese of up to 53 milligrams per kilogramme (mg/kg), while the additive is deemed at a ?danger level? at 24 mg/kg, the Honda complaint said. Representatives for the individual fuel suppliers and for Honda could not be immediately reached for comment. Ilyas Fazil, head of Pakistan?s Oil Companies Advisory Council, said on Thursday that he had not heard of manganese additives being a problem in the industry. -
PSO cancels jet fuel tender amid Afghan border dispute
waqas dar posted a blog entry in Geo News Blog
Pakistan State Oil has cancelled a tender to buy jet fuel for delivery in June amid a border dispute between the South Asian country and Afghanistan, a source at the company said on Tuesday. PSO initially sought to buy a cargo of 10,000 tonnes of jet fuel for delivery in June but this has now been cancelled due to restrictions in shipping oil across the border, the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised to speak with media. About 70 to 80 percent of the company´s imports of jet fuel are re-exported to neighbouring Afghanistan, the source added. "We still have a cargo waiting to unload outside of Afghanistan and it´s been waiting for the past four to five days," the source said. US and Afghan special forces, backed by drone strikes and other air support, have waged a series of operations against Daesh in Afghanistan since March, killing dozens of their fighters, mainly in Nangarhar, on the border with Pakistan. Separately, PSO also cancelled a tender to buy gasoil cargoes for June as it has sufficient inventory, the source said.
