KARACHI, April 28: Progas Pakistan Limited has tested compression and pumping facilities for exporting LPG during the recent visit of MV Rio Garcia, an LPG carrier at the Progas LPG Terminal.

The testing now allows this facility to commence operations for LPG trade in the Indian Ocean islands and East Coast Africa, says a press release.

The company’s terminal has been designed as the only LPG import and export facility in the country. Progas is working with a number of international LPG trading houses to commence this operation once its facilities are bonded.
