(MENAFN- Live Mint) The Union Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas on Saturday rubbished reports claiming that an Iranian ship headed for India had diverted to China due to alleged payment issues.

In a statement on X, the petroleum ministry called the claim“factually incorrect”, adding that companies have full flexibility to import oil from different sources.

“The news reports and social media posts of an Iranian crude cargo being diverted from Vadinar, India to China due to“payment issues” are factually incorrect. India imports crude oil from 40+ countries, with companies having full flexibility to source oil from different sources & geographies based on commercial considerations,” the petroleum ministry said in a statement on Saturday.
