This reduction allows it to manage the available gasoil stock while waiting for the supply.

In this sense, the Directorate General, while taking the necessary measures to remedy this situation, reassures its loyal customers that electricity production will increase substantially soon thanks to the supply by Wednesday in Gasoil since an oil tanker is currently in the port of Port-au-Prince.
