SHELL & DOE FAILED TO ENSURE SUPPLIES OF NATURAL GAS TO BUS OPERATOR's

21 February 2010

Bus operators have lost a lot of money because of the failure of Shell Pilipinas and the Dept Of Energy to ensure supplies of natural gas in the green transport program 

  

Operators of compressed natural gas-run buses have threatened to pull out of the Department of Energy's Natural Gas Vehicle Program for Public Transport (NGVPPT) over the government’s alleged failure to address the issues plaguing the program.

According to Roberto Torres, president of the RRCG Transport System Co. Inc., they have been unable to operate their CNG buses due to the inability of the "daughter" station of the Pilipinas Shell at Mamplasan to operate and provide fuel to them.

Torres said bus operators, which have already invested heavily for the project, have been losing some P200 million. He said his company has been suffering losses of about P1 million a month. FULL STORY
