Litro Gas Company says it is hoping to pay USD 7 million for two LP Gas shipments today.
Litro Chairman Vijitha Herath said there would be adequate LP gas stocks in the country for the next two weeks once both ships are unloaded.
Chairman Herath noted that Litro Gas currently has stocks of gas sufficient for the next six days.
Litro Gas Company released 80,000 LP gas cylinders to the market yesterday and will continue to do so daily.
The Chairman said 50,000 of the 80,000 cylinders would be distributed to the Colombo and Gampaha Districts based on recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee on Public Enterprises.
