The Cabinet of Ministers on Monday approved the awarding of contracts for the supply of lubricants required for the SEMT Pielstick PC 4.2 Diesel Engine (A Plant) and the MAN B&W 8L Diesel Engine (B Plant) for the period from March 2025 to February 2026.
“Following a competitive bidding process, the Government awarded the contract for the supply of 414,000 litres of lubricant for the A Plant to Lanka IOC PLC, while the contract for the B Plant, which requires 389,000 litres of lubricant, was awarded to Chevron Lubricants Lanka PLC,” Cabinet Spokesman and Minister Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa said at the weekly post-Cabinet meeting media briefing yesterday.
The suppliers were selected based on the recommendations of the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as specified in the official operation and maintenance handbook. These selections ensure that the power plant operates efficiently with lubricants that meet the necessary performance and durability standards.
