PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd ends LPG shortage

The impact of PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd’s presence in Dominica came into sharp focus again today when the company ended energy company SOL’s LPG shortage.

After going without LPG for a few days, SOL’s LPG bottles were delivered to the Waitukubuli Fuel Storage and Distribution Plant in Jimmit on February 15, and filled with Petrocaribe LPG.

The decision by the management of PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd to collaborate with rival energy company SOL in order to end a gas shortage came easy because PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd understands its social commitment to Dominica. Part of the company’s mission is to meet the energy needs of Dominica and the company takes that duty seriously.

PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd is a joint venture of the Government of Dominica and the Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

PDV Caribe Dominica Ltd owns and operates the Waitukubuli Fuel Storage and Distribution Plant, which was officially commissioned here in June 2008 with this very aim; providing Dominica with energy security.

    Will this LPG given to whitchurch for sale be sold at the same $30.00 around the island ? or will it be sold at whitchurch’s regulated price ?

    Shame on Whitchurch. Due to their flagrant disrespect of loyal customers they have limited storage of LPG, which causes them to have several shortages a year. They are the oldest LPG gas distributer and see how they had to be humiliated by PDV, a new kid on the block. Sol should just leave the field for Suzie and PDV, who seem more consistent in delivery.
