In a statement issued on Monday by Chief Corporate Communications Officer Olufemi Soneye, the NNPC explained that a recent thunderstorm significantly disrupted the ship-to-ship (STS) transfer of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol, between mother vessels and daughter vessels. This disruption has led to delays in berthing at jetties, truck load-outs, and the transportation of products to filling stations.
“The adverse weather condition has also affected berthing at jetties, truck load-outs and transportation of products to filling stations, causing a disruption in station supply logistics,” the statement read.
