Chairman of Ceylon Coal Company Shehan Sumanasekara says that the tender for supplying coal to Norochchole Power Plant has been given to Arista Mitra, an Indonesian company.
He also mentioned that this tender was given to that company as the lowest bidder.
He said that these coal orders will be received with a credit period and said that 720000 metric tons of coal will be delivered to Puttalam Port in 12 occasions starting next February with 60000 metric tons at a time.
Coal tenders were called three times since last September, but all three tenders were canceled due to various reasons.
