HÀ NỘI — PetroVietnam Transportation Corporation (PVTrans) signed a contract this month with Tata International Singapore to ship 1 million tonnes of coal to Duyên Hải 3 Thermoelectric Plant in Trà Vinh.

This information was released on Tuesday by the Việt Nam National Oil and Gas Group (PetroVietnam) – PVTrans’ parent group.

The contract is in line with PetroVietnam’s plan to transport coal domestically to thermoelectric plants in the Cửu Long (Mekong) Delta region, including the supply for coastal thermoelectric plants, as well as Long Phú 1 and Sông Hậu 1 thermoelectric plants.

The large volume of coal will be transported in a short period from April to August 2017.

With experiences in transport for many years, PVTrans has built a supply chain of coal to deal with difficulties in geographic locations during the transport of coal to thermoelectric plants in the south and the Cửu Long Delta regions.

Therefore, Tata International Singapore has highly appreciated and chosen PVTrans to ship coal to the Duyên Hải 3 thermoelectric plant.

PVTrans has diversified its transport services, besides the logistics services for oil and gas products, to meet the increasing demand to transport bulk cargo for the oil and gas industry, as well as other industries. — VNS
