Consumption of Petroleum Products (POL) in fiscal year 2008/09 stood at 729,621 Kilolitres (KL) recording a growth of 16.2 percent. Consumption of LP gas also rose by 19.6 percent reaching 115,813 Metric Tons (MT) during this period. Consumption of these two products in first eight months of fiscal year 2008/09 had totaled 431,745 KL, and 73,618 MT respectively. Consumption of POL products during the same period of the current fiscal year 2009/10 recorded a surge of 29.3 percent totaling 558,114 KL, and that of LP gas also rose notably by 17.4 percent totaling 86,403 MT (MoF, 2010). Besides, we do not have any known resources of petroleum products, but the consumption of these products has been increasing at a tremendous rate. In 2010, total petroleum products sales (1.2 million) increased by 27 percent but some of the products increased at a much higher rate such as petrol by 31 percent, diesel by 37 percent and LPG by 22 percent respectively( Nakarmi, 2011). Thus, there is heavy increment in the consumption of the petroleum products.
