Two aviation fuel pipeline operators set to go in court
Sunday, November 5th, 2006A dispute between the two aviation fuel pipeline operators serving Suvarnabhumi Airport has escalated into a lawsuit filed by JP-One Asset Co against rival Thai Petroleum Pipeline Co Ltd (Thappline).
JP-One, a subsidiary of Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) listed Bangkok Aviation Fuel Services Plc (Bafs), is claiming 5.18 billion baht in compensation for alleged tort and violation of the Trade Competition Act.
Thappline, a subsidiary of PTT Plc, is named as a defendant along with its directors in the suit, filed in the Thanyaburi Provincial Court. The suit follows an earlier complaint JP-One had made to the Commerce Ministry, claiming that Thappline was engaged in price-dumping.
New Bangkok Airport found taxiway problem last month ’caused by water’
Saturday, November 4th, 2006The Engineering Institute of Thailand (EIT) released the findings of an investigation after uneven and cracked taxiways and parking bays were found last month at the airport, which opened in September.
Excessive underground water in and outside Suvarnabhumi airport is the cause of recently-found cracks on its taxiways, says the Engineering Institute of Thailand (EIT).
EIT director Suebsak Phromboon said the airport’s asphaltic concrete pavement was soaked for too long and became too soft to bear aircraft weight. He attributed the problem to the airport’s failure to minimise the amount of water in the airport’s ditches. Consequently, the level of underground water surged and eventually seeped upwards to the layer of the asphaltic concrete pavement, Suebsak Phromboon said.
Noise pollution around new Bangkok Airport will be concluded
Friday, November 3rd, 2006Mr. Chalor Kotcharat, the Deputy Permanent Secretary for Transport, said the Ministry of Transport will urgently evaluate the problems and solutions concerning the residents around Suvarnabhumi Airport. The result will be announced within November 7th.
Mr. Chalor had a meeting with the Department of Civil Aviation, the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning, and all involved agencies to find the alternatives to solve the noise pollution problem around the new international airport of Thailand.
Currently, officers have been dispatched to measure the noise level in decibels during the take-offs and landings of airplanes.
