Lebanon’s caretaker Energy Minister Nada Boustani delayed on Monday a fuel tender by one week to allow for more competition and better prices after receiving offers from two companies.
The ministry is trialing a tender to import 150,000 tons of 95 octane gasoline in an effort to stave off potential supply shortages during Lebanon’s worst economic crisis in decades.
