Current petroleum business in the province is quite stable
12/12/2022
(binhthuan.gov.vn) So
far, in the province, there are 05 petroleum trading branches of wholesale
traders, including: Binh Thuan Petroleum Branch of Ba Ria - Vung Tau Petroleum
Company Limited, Binh Thuan Petroleum - Oil Joint Stock Company, Duong Dong -
Binh Thuan Co., Ltd., Branch of Ho Chi Minh City Petroleum Company Limited,
Branch of Investment and Trade Corporation. In addition, our province also has
03 petroleum distributors, namely Hiep Thinh Petroleum Trading Company Limited,
Tran Vu Joint Stock Company and Binh Thuan Agricultural Service Joint Stock
Company.
In general, the petroleum business
situation of traders in the province is stable and in order, strictly abides the
State's regulations, creating jobs for people, and contributing to increase
local budget; the organization of licensing petrol and oil business is carried
out strictly according to the one-stop mechanism, ensuring the settlement in
the prescribed time.
However, there are still some
shortcomings in petroleum business activities in the province such as some
petrol and oil trading enterprises that have not fully complied with the
regulations on petrol and oil trading, especially the registration of
distribution network, registration of sales time... Besides, domestic gasoline
prices currently do not fully reflect the costs of petrol and oil trading,
leading to the limitation in distribution of discount rates in the petroleum
trading system, many petrol retailers do not receive discounts to cover costs
and maintain business operations so they cannot ensure a continuous supply to
the market.
Therefore, the Provincial People's
Committee has proposed the Ministry of Industry and Trade to report to the
Government to amend and supplement regulations on petroleum business,
especially the regulation of discount rates in petroleum business to share
benefits in a legitimate way with a reasonable discount rate for retailers, preparing
plan to re-adjust business expenses with a normed profit in the base price from
wholesale traders, distribution systems, and retail systems in order to
stabilize the petroleum distribution system, contributing to the production and
consumption of the people.
