Uzbekistan has increased petrol imports from Russia
Economy
Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev earlier instructed relevant agencies and enterprises to import 120 thousand tonnes of gasoline by the end of 2023 in order to ensure stable fuel supplies in the autumn-winter period.
It should be noted that the demand for petrol in Andijan, Namangan and Fergana regions has sharply increased compared to supply due to a sharp drop in air temperature and temporary restrictions on the work of petrol stations in the Fergana Valley. Therefore, Uzbekistan has increased the volume of petrol imports from Russia. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Energy.
It is noted that on the basis of imports from Russia, the volume of AI-92 K5 petrol imported by the enterprise "SDK Group And" was increased. Due to this it was possible to increase the volume of petrol sales in the domestic market.
In addition, in order to meet the excess demand today increased the production capacity of Bukhara and Fergana oil refineries from 3.3 thousand tonnes to 4 thousand tonnes or launched an average daily production of additional 700 tonnes of gasoline.
