Cape Town and Gauteng are experiencing shortages of certain
fuel types, the Fuel Retailers' Association (FRA) said. Cape Town and
Gauteng are experiencing shortages of certain fuel types, the Fuel
Retailers' Association (FRA) said on Thursday. “Some service stations
(are) reporting being dry for six to seven days on one or two products,”
FRA chief executive officer Reggie Sibiya said in a statement. “Diesel
and ULP95 are topping the product list of shortages.” Last month, Durban
suffered a shortage of low sulphur diesel.

On Thursday, Sibiya
said depots in Alrode, Langlaagte, Watloo and Killarney in Gauteng had
delivery problems. BP and Caltex were the two companies who seemed to be
the worst affected. Sibiya claimed oil companies were not providing
fuel retailers with a proper explanation about the shortages. The FRA is
an independent body which promotes the interests of fuel retailers. -
