Al-Sa'īdāt: Gasoline use surges fourfold
The Fuel Station Owners' Union has confirmed that the demand for kerosene in Jordan increased during the summer to approximately seven times its normal consumption in winter, reaching around 200 million liters annually. Currently, kerosene is being used as an alternative to diesel in vehicles, which puts the stock of subsidized fuel at risk and causes mechanical damage to engines, especially in fuel injection systems such as pumps and injectors. A directive has been issued prohibiting the refueling of diesel-powered vehicles with kerosene, in order to protect engine safety, in coordination with security authorities, with legal measures being enforced against violators. It is worth noting that the rise in diesel prices due to geopolitical tensions, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz, is increasing pressure on the transportation sector. Meanwhile, the government is considering alternatives such as expanding the use of gas-powered vehicles to help reduce costs.
