The West African Gas Pipeline Company Limited (WAPCo) has resumed gas delivery at its Regulating and Metering Station at Tema.
In a press statement on Saturday, March 23, WAPCo said the Tema facility completely shut down at around 10:30pm on Friday due to a system glitch.
Areas such as Tema, Lapaz, Weija, Mallam, Kasoa barrier, and others encountered electricity disruptions.
The company noted that it resumed gas delivery to customers in Tema at around 6.30 am on Saturday after engineers worked throughout the night to ensure power was restored.
"WAPCo is committed to delivering safe and reliable services and is investigating the root cause of the problem to prevent a recurrence," the General Manager of Corporate Affairs, Dr. Isaac Adjei Doku said in a statement.
The company further added that, "WAPCo is grateful to its key stakeholders for their patience while the system was being fixed and regrets any inconvenience caused, especially to our customers in Tema that relay on WAGP gas for power generation."
