Availability of petroleum products in country

Union Coal and Mines Minister G Kishan Reddy said citizens need not worry about the availability of petroleum products in the country due to the ongoing armed conflict in West Asia.

In a statement here, he said the country is prepared to face the circumstances arising out of the crisis.

India is the fourth largest refiner and fifth largest exporter of petroleum products globally. Though the country is the third largest importer of petroleum products, it does not face any immediate trouble, he said about the US-Israel attack on Iran and its retaliation targeting some west Asian countries.

Adequate crude oil stocks and petroleum products such as petrol, diesel and ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) are available in the country, he said.
