Kyrgyzstan Boosts Gasoline Exports To Afghanistan, Uzbekistan
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan, September 8. Kyrgyzstan
has significantly increased its gasoline exports to Afghanistan and
Uzbekistan in the first half of 2024, Trend reports, citing the analytical company
Argus.
The agency highlights that this increase in exports is
attributed to the rise in fuel production at local
mini-refineries.
Kyrgyzstan exported 5,800 tons of gasoline from January through
June, more than double the 2,600 tons exported during the same
period last year. The bulk of this gasoline, specifically AI-80 and
AI-92 grades, was shipped to Afghanistan and Uzbekistan.
Exports to Afghanistan surged to 3,700 tons from 500 tons, with
retail network operators in northern and central Afghanistan being
the primary buyers, as reported by traders.
"Gasoline shipments from Kyrgyzstan to Uzbekistan increased
slightly to 2,100 tons from 2,000 tons in the previous year. Retail
network owners in Uzbekistan's Fergana and Tashkent regions are
likely showing increased interest in Kyrgyz fuel," Argus
stated.
