For its part, the YPF oil company announced yesterday that it will import over the next 45 days around 500,000 cubic meters of diesel to supply the local market, to respond to the strong demand for fuel that has been verified since the beginning of the year.

“In the next 45 days, YPF will import 10 ships with a total of almost 500,000 cubic meters of diesel. According to the tentative schedule, this week 2 ships arrive, 5 ships in July and 3 in August”specified industry sources.

This is due to the fact that the demand for diesel has been at historically high levels since the beginning of the year, and in the face of this growing market, YPF took actions to help respond to this situation.

In the country, between 15% and 20% of the local consumption of diesel -without considering the power plants- is supplied with imports.
