OIL DELIVERIES TO BOSNIA FROM PLOCE PORT RESUMED

( Editorial: --> 7346 ) PLOCE, March 5 (Hina) - Oil deliveries to Bosnia-Herzegovina were resumed on Thursday after the Croatian oil company INA agreed to wait six months to collect outstanding debts from the Bosnian company Energopetrol. Thirty tank truck left Ploce for Sarajevo on Thursday morning, carrying 700 tonnes of gasoline and diesel fuel. The deliveries were discontinued by court order on February 25 after INA sued its Bosnian customer for failure to pay for purchased goods. Executing the order, the Customs Department cordoned off and sealed Energopetrol's storage facilities at the Ploce port. INA and Energopetrol eventually signed an agreement whereby Energopetrol was granted a six-month loan to settle outstanding debts. (hina) mm as 051431 MET mar 98
