March 04, 2025

Petroleum products can no longer be transported by road at night and vehicles must be checked every three months to ensure that all safety fittings are installed, maintained and tested, the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board said.

The guidelines on transporting petroleum products by road follow recent accidents involving trucks carrying liquified petroleum gas.

PNGRB suggested avoiding roads to transport bulk petroleum products over long distances and using pipelines or railway rakes instead. It added that spare pipeline capacity of oil marketing companies be utilized under product sharing or as common carriers to transport petroleum products.
