The courts have frozen bank accounts belonging to the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS).
The order comes as part of the proceedings of an 11-year court battle between the Bureau and Dubai based firm Geo-Chem Middle East.
The Supreme Court had ordered KEBS to pay the Dubai firm Sh2 billion for breach of contract charges.
KEBS had contracted Geo-Chem to inspect the quality of petroleum products entering the country at the Mombasa port in 2009.
A year later, KEBS terminated the contract citing a hike in the prices of petroleum caused by dealers.
An arbitral tribunal ruled in favour of the Dubai firm awarding it a sum of Sh1.6 billion in 2016.
KEBS would later challenge the ruling at the High Court where Justice John Mativo upheld a prior decision to freeze the accounts.
