Quality Control and Monitoring Guidelines for the Zambian Petroleum Fuel Industry

The second revision of the Quality Control and Monitoring Guidelines for the Zambian Petroleum Fuel Industry was necessitated by the need to address the following:

1. Government policy to convert INDENI Petroleum Refinery to an OMC and TAZAMA Pipeline from transportation of crude oil to diesel;
   Weaknesses of the existing guidelines as identified by the various stakeholders in the supply chain;
2. Challenges associated with quality assurance in the wake of emerging issues;
3. Introduction of biofuel blends and additised petroleum fuels;
4. Introduction of the Fuel Marking Program; and
5. Handling of contaminated and/ or off specification petroleum fuels.

These guidelines shall be reviewed every five years or as and when need arises to address emerging issues in the Zambian Petroleum Fuel Industry.
