A private source said to NewsYemen that the company Petromasila oil supplies the two electricity companies in Hadramout with diesel daily by about (150 thousand) liters at (40) Yemeni riyals.

He stressed that "Petromasila" also provides the Yemeni oil company in the coast of Hadramout supplies diesel by about (600 thousand liters) per day at (180) Yemeni riyals per liter.

According to the source, the company is committed to providing diesel to the Electricity Corporation and the oil company in accordance with the agreement with the local authority in May 2016 and despite the large debt of the two companies to "Petromasila.

The oil company is selling diesel at stations with an increase per liter exceeding 90 Yemeni riyals out of 180 riyals. The difference is estimated at one billion five hundred million Yemeni riyals per a month.

He pointed out that the agreement stipulated that the financial difference will be allocated to support electricity fuel in Sahel and Valley of Hadramout in accordance with the contract document.

The source was surprised by the deep secrecy of the local authority in the province and the oil and electricity companies about the distribution of diesel; the large media attack on the national company that currently operates the electricity of the valley with a capacity of 75 Mega from the gas station in the tenth sector.

He called on the government authorities to clarify the daily quantities coming from Petromasila to the electricity and oil, the financial differences collected and the revenues generated by the commercial price, and to clarify the debts of electricity and oil to the company.

A meeting held in Mukalla earlier this week, headed by the first Deputy of Hadramout province that held the Petromasila company responsibility for power outages to citizens in the province because of the failure of supporting electric machines with diesel, which the company denied
