Asharami Synergy Kenya whose fuel was blocked from entering the country has denied allegations that its products are of substandard quality after a ship with 75 million litres of petrol they imported was turned away from the Mombasa port on April 1 after its fuel was rejected by Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC).
Reliable sources at KPC said that they conducted tests to ascertain the quality of the fuel but it did not match the paperwork presented by the firm.

Records show that the cargo met the required parameters and Kenya Bureau of Standards’ (Kebs) final boiling point of 200 degrees Celsius but KPC tests showed 204 degrees Celsius.
In a statement, the energy firm insists that its cargo met the required standards as they now demand a retest by an independent ISO-certified agency.
“Only independent test will provide an outcome that will be acceptable to all,” Asharami added.
Asharami Synergy affirms said that the consignment in question came from the Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Aramco), one of the world’s top trading firms with undeniable reputation for quality and global standards.
The product being from Aramco is lending credence to Asharami’s unwavering commitment to impeccable standards in all aspects of its operations.
“We note that the product is on-specification for all parameters, right from the loading port where the test by Bureau Veritas recorded a final boiling point of 199 degrees Celsius.” Asharami said.
The company also complained that tests upon which the decision on the specification of the cargo were made were carried out by agencies without any certificate of international calibration.
