Hi Everyone.
I wanted to give you an update on the diesel situation as you would've heard by now there are problems with supply in Port Elizabeth.
The problem is at Astron, the supplier to ALL fuel companies sourcing from PE. We have been impacted since yesterday and no solution was found even today. As Engen, we have resorted to roadhauling from East London depot. The problem with that is the availability of trucks.
So all your diesel orders from yesterday and today are affected, and the orders for the next few days will be affected aswell. Every little bit we get from East London will go towards the backlog until we catch up all orders. I definately expect sites to go dry on diesel (some are dry already).
I will update you on this platform as and when I get relevant information.
We are splitting the orders so that you can receive your ULP atleast.
Regards,
Siyanda
