Chinese firm gets major oil deal in
Sri Lanka

A Chinese firm has won the award to supply fuel to the international airport & the harbour at Hambantota for the pre-commissioning of a bunkering facility and tank farm.

The winner, China Hanqui Contracting & Engineering Corporation, has just completed work on the project in Hambantota. The fuel requirements are for the pre-commissioning and testing of the facility before being handed over to the Sri Lanka Ports Authority (SLPA).

The move follows a recommendation to the Cabinet by President Mahinda Rajapaksa in his capacity as Minister of Ports and Highways. It was only last Monday that he declared open the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport.

The Cabinet decided to award the project for the Supply of Gas Oil (Marine Diesel Oil) and Jet A 1 Oil for pre-commissioning of the Bunkering Facility and Tank Farm. The total negotiated bid price for this would be US$ 12,137,992. The amount is without taxes and duties.

The Cabinet has also given approval to call for “technical and financial proposals” from the Chinese firm to supply the minimum requirement of Gas Oil and Jet Oil for pre-commissioning on returnable basis without the left over stock.
