South of the country entails consequences early election protests registered in the second week of December last year, one of them is the supply of liquefied petroleum gas, which has not yet been normalized, according to Eric Garcia, former director general of hydrocarbons at the Ministry of Energy and Mines (Minem).

Although plants have fuel reserve, this is not enough to cover the high demand that has accumulated over more than 10 days, which lasted the first day of protests. The problem is exacerbated by the shortage of LPG tankers.

“We have a deficit because the supply was not covered by the supply chain, that is, there is a product, unfortunately, transport has not arrived even now, which is required to cover everything, but there are no cars,” he explained. Economy for everyone.

What causes the shortage of the tank?

After the deflagration of the LNG carrier in 2020 villa el saviorAgency for the Supervision of Investments in Energy and Mines (osinergmin) have re-registered LPG transport and distribution tanks to ensure that they comply with safety specifications.

Provision has removed an average of 2,000 units from the market, and now this shortage affects the transfer of fuel demanded by the southern regions, since the number of authorized vehicles is not enough to mobilize the specified cargo.

However, Eric Garcia ruled out that this problem is causing prices to rise. “(During demonstrations) it replenished and never reached zero. Now some plants are sold directly to housewives, so there should be no increase in prices, because there are no intermediaries,” he said.

How are things going with the supply according to Osinergmin

Until yesterday, a report from osinergmin showed an increase in demand for CIS announcement of strikes that began today in various regions of the south of the country.

However, the supervisory authority confirmed the transfer of several tanks. 28 tanks for 759,000 gallons have been allocated to Arequipa, and consumers are registered in Tacna to avoid long queues.
