Re: Clarification about the supply of aviation fuel to Suvarnbhumi Airport
To: President
The Stock Exchange of Thailand
Reference is made to news stated in Manager, Post Today and Kaohoon
Newspapers dated 11 September 2006 that BAFS does not sign MOU with Thai
Petroleum Pipeline Co., Ltd. (THAPPLINE) to supply aviation fuel to
Suvarnabhumi Airport which may affect the operation commencement of
Suvarnabhumi Airport on September 28, 2006.
BAFS would like to inform that the stated news is incorrect. BAFS and
THAPPLINE have good relationship for the time being by having no argument
at all. In addition, BAFS has already signed MOU with THAPPLINE to supply
aviation fuel to Suvarnabhumi Airport. Therefore, at present BAFS's depot at
Suvarnabhumi Airport has 2 routes to receive aviation fuel. In case that one
pipeline has any problem, the other pipeline can be used to supply aviation
fuel to Suvarnabhumi Airport. From the above, it ensures that BAFS's service
shall certainly not affect the operation commencement of Suvarnabhumi Airport.
Respectfully yours,
