Global Demand Ka Asar California Par!
Yaar, duniya mein kya chal raha hai kuch samajh nahi aa raha! India ko aajkal LPG ki itni zaroorat pad gayi hai ki woh ek important gasoline additive ka export band kar raha hai. Iski wajah se seedha California mein gas prices $6 dollar per gallon ke bhi upar chali gayi hain.
India Ki LPG Zaroorat Aur Additive Ka Cut
Asal mein, global supply mein gadbadi aur Strait of Hormuz jaise areas mein tension ki wajah se India ko apna domestic LPG supply manage karna hai. Isliye, India ne apne refiners ko kaha hai ki zyada se zyada LPG banao. Lekin is process mein, unko alkylates ka production kam karna pad raha hai. Alkylates woh zaruri ingredient hain jo LPG se bante hain aur gasoline banane ke kaam aate hain.
California Ki Special Fuel Requirements
California mein wahan ke strict environmental rules ke wajah se ek special tarah ka gasoline use hota hai, jisme alkylates bahut zaroori hote hain. Jab India inka export kam kar raha hai, toh yeh additive milna mushkil ho gaya hai. Is scarcity se California ke already tight fuel market par aur pressure aa gaya hai, jahan pehle se hi production kam ho raha hai aur stocks bhi low hain. American Petroleum Institute ke chief economist, Mason Hamilton, ne bhi kaha hai ki India ke kam alkylate exports se California ka market strain ho raha hai.
Gaadi Chalane Wale De Rahe Hain Zyada Paise
Ab California mein logo ko $6.14 per gallon ke aas paas pay karna pad raha hai, jo 2022 ke baad sabse mehnga rate hai. GasBuddy ke analyst Patrick De Haan bol rahe hain ki summer mein jab travel demand badhegi, toh yeh prices $6.50 ko bhi cross kar sakta hai.
Reliance Bhi Action Mein
Is situation mein, Reliance Industries, jiske paas Jamnagar mein duniya ka sabse bada refinery hai, usne confirm kiya hai ki woh LPG production ko priority dene ke liye alkylate output aur exports kam kar raha hai. Data dikhata hai ki India ke total alkylate exports April mein 2023 ke October ke baad sabse kam ho gaye the.
India mein bhi LPG ki kami se queues lag rahi hain aur black marketing bhi ho rahi hai. Governor Gavin Newsom ki administration bhi options explore kar rahi hai, jaise ki fuel specifications par waivers dene ka sochna, lekin energy officials abhi cautious hain.
