ENOC says its cargo to Sri Lanka met all specifications

21 July 2013 05:38 am

Emirates National Oil Company (Enoc) said it has investigated how a diesel cargo to Sri Lanka that was alleged to be not as per contractual specifications and came to the conclusion that the cargo met all specifications.

“Further to the concerns raised on the gasoil cargo for Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC), Enoc would like to reiterate that independent sample testing undertaken has conclusively proved that Enoc’s cargo had met all specifications outlined by CPC,” an ENOC spokesperson said in an emailed statement.

“CPC had rejected the cargo claiming that it was off-specification. Enoc’s request for a joint testing at Colombo was turned down, as well as Enoc’s offer to provide alternate cargo, which is contrary to precedence set by CPC in similar situations concerning other suppliers. Enoc was also barred from further tender participation,” ENOC spokesperson said.(GulfNews)
