In the wake of the decision of the LAUGFS Gas PLC to stop all its imports creating fears that the country was likely to face a gas shortage, Litro Gas Lanka said that they had adequate stocks of gas cylinders to meet the requirement.  

In a statement, Theshara Jayasinghe,  Chairman of Litro Gas said they had the potential to provide gas to all types of cylinders in any colour.   

“We are also equipped with the potential to get more stocks of cylinders if necessary in the future. We have that ability and supplier network,” he stressed.   

“Thus, the customers should not have any fear that the country would be on the verge of facing a gas shortage,” he added.   

The Chairman also said the LAUGFS only provided 20 per cent of gas from the total household consumption in the country.
