The Vento petrol station network in Moldova has temporarily suspended the sale of petrol and diesel at almost half of its stations in Moldova. The restrictions affect 42 of the 91 stations and have been in force since 4 November.
According to Vento Retail, the directive prohibits the use of KVERTI-K-type measuring systems. The ban came into force on the same day at 4.00 pm. However, the company maintains that the systems installed at its petrol stations are in good working order and hold valid metrological inspection certificates.
Vento claim the equipment also held the necessary type-approval certificate at the time of purchase and commissioning. The company has approached the relevant authorities to request that they investigate the situation and grant a reasonable period to comply with the requirements.
The suspension applies only to the sale of fuel: the petrol stations themselves remain open.
