At today's management session, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry and Trade did not set aside or spend the Price Stabilization Fund for most types of gasoline and oil, except for fuel oil, which costs 300 VND/liter.
The room for the Petroleum Price Stabilization Fund of some key enterprises is recording a large positive level because in recent management periods, the management agency has rarely used the Fund.
As of February 22, Petrolimex recorded a price stabilization fund balance of VND3,063 billion; Saigon Petro had a price stabilization fund balance of VND327 billion, Petimex had a price stabilization fund balance of VND459 billion...
On the world market, Russia's RBK daily on February 27 quoted Russian government sources and a spokesman for Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin confirming that Mr. Mishustin had approved a decision to ban the export of gasoline and diesel for 6 months, starting from March 1, to ensure sufficient supply for the domestic market during periods of high demand.
The move could also have a negative impact on global markets amid supply concerns amid a decline in US refining activity and difficulties in transporting fuel due to tensions in the Red Sea region. However, analysts were cautious, warning of the risk of a spike in global oil prices.
