India's Diesel Exports Reach One-Year High in September Amid Tight Global Supply
India's diesel exports reached a one-year high of about 620,000 barrels per day in September, driven by record refining margins and soaring diesel prices. Nearly half of the shipments, around 280,000 bpd, were sent to Europe, which faces tight diesel supplies due to refinery disruptions. Other destinations included Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Factors such as refinery issues in West Asia and Russia, along with export bans by China, have tightened global diesel supply, creating opportunities for India as a key supplier.
