2. Why were the Directives introduced?
Among others, the key objectives of the Directives are:-
a. To control and monitor the purchases of Diesel and Motor Gasoline (Premium 97, Super 92 dan Regular 85) made in the country.

The Government of His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam with the cooperation of Brunei Shell Petroleum Company Sendirian Berhad (BSP) and Brunei Shell Marketing Company Sendirian Berhad (BSM) will always ensure that the CWS of the said petroleum products is adequate and stable without the need to import.
