Reliance Industries Expands Fuel Exports Amid West Asia Supply Disruptions
Reliance Industries redirected fuel exports to East and South Africa, the Mediterranean, Europe, Australia, Kenya, and Tanzania to capitalize on supply disruptions caused by the West Asia conflict. This strategy increased its market share in these regions by about 50% and contributed to a 68% surge in its oil-to-chemicals business EBITDA to a record ₹25,203 crore in the September quarter. The conflict has led to higher crude oil and transportation fuel prices, tightening global refining margins amid geopolitical disruptions and refinery outages.
