Despite official reassurance that the fuel shortage is nearing an end
with supplies likely to return to their normal level in the coming week,
consumers continue to be wary. Fuel prices in petrol pumps have gone up, and
diesel in private hands now costs MNT2,000 per liter, down from MNT3,000 when
the shortage was most acute.
Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy D.Zorigt has said Mongolia will
receive 37,000 tons of diesel from Rosnefti LLC in June. It has already paid for
15,000 tons of this. The two sides hope to soon reach a decision on the rate
for the other 22,000 tons. Another 10,000 tons of diesel will come every month
from China.
