Regional petroleum company, SOL St Lucia Ltd (BVI), is reportedly now in line for a contract to replace Delta Petroleum as the main provider of No. 2 diesel fuel to the BVI Electricity Corporation (BVIEC).<\/span><\/p>\n

A fuel supply agreement between the BVIEC and Delta Petroleum\u00a0<\/span>recently fell apart<\/span><\/a>\u00a0after Delta informed the BVIEC of its inability to continue to source and supply the required fuel under their agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

But SOL positioned itself to replace Delta when it submitted a bid recently.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the contract has not yet been awarded to SOL, a release from the BVIEC said the electricity corporation has made progress in securing a \u201cstable and reliable supplier\u201d to deliver No. 2 diesel fuel for the purpose of producing electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the media release, a bid was received on May 27 and opened on June 2 at a virtual bid-opening event where the media and representatives of the two agencies were present.<\/span><\/p>\n

SOL submitted a total bid of $156,159,360 for supply of No. 2 diesel fuel at the Henry Wilfred Smith Power Station at Pockwood Pond for the period between 2022-2024. SOL also submitted a bid of $856,221.84 to supply lubricating oil within the same time period.<\/span><\/p>\n

The St Lucian petroleum company also entered a third bid totalling $1,854,671.4 to supply No. 2 diesel fuel for the Anegada Power Station.<\/span><\/p>\n

The BVIEC said it wishes to reassure the public that all efforts were being made to procure the necessary No. 2 diesel fuel for the continued production of electricity \u2018in the intervening period\u2019 prior to awarding any contracts.<\/span><\/p>\n
