Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Mozambique will import 175,000 tonnes of fuel in the next import contract, for which an international tender to select the supplier will be launched on 15 January, an official source told Lusa on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The director-general of the Mozambican Oil Importer (Imopetro), Jo\u00e3o Macandja, said that the candidate companies have until next January to submit proposals.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe criteria for selecting the next entity for importing fuel will be the best price, safety and reliability in importing,\u201d Macandja said.<\/p>\n

The director-general of Imopetro said that the selected company will be responsible for importing a total of 1,290,000 tonnes of fuel during the six months covered by the contract \u2013 to start during the first half of 2022, but still without a date \u2013 175,000 more than in the current contract, established with the multinational Vitol, which replaced TotalEnergies.<\/p>\n

All liquid fuel on sale in Mozambique (diesel, gasoline and jet fuel) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, used as cooking gas) is imported by the sea in special cargo vessels.<\/p>\n

The process is centralised by law in a single entity, Imopetro, owned by the distributors of petroleum products operating in the country.<\/p>\n

Every six months, the public company asks them how much fuel they need for the next half year and launches an international tender to choose the best price and quality to supply the entire Mozambican market.<\/p>\n
