A breakthrough in the fuel crisis
Sudan intends to increase its oil production by about 20 thousand additional barrels per day, as part of a plan to extract from new fields and expand exploration operations.
The fuel crisis in Sudan witnessed a major breakthrough and queues at service stations decreased after days of liberalizing the price of gasoline and gasoline.
Sudan decided a few days ago to allow the private sector to import gasoline and gasoline and sell them to the public at the international price.
Ayman Abu Al-Joukh, Director General of the Sudanese National Petroleum Corporation (Sudapet), told Reuters that Sudan will add three thousand barrels per day to its oil production from a new field, which raises the country’s production to 64 thousand barrels per day.
Sudan is trying to increase oil production to reduce costly fuel imports, after losing 73% of production after the secession of South Sudan in 2011.
He stated that the authorities hoped to attract investments from Western companies after the United States confirmed that it would remove Khartoum from the list of countries sponsoring terrorism, which was hindering international financing and debt relief.
At the end of last week, the Sudanese government began implementing a policy of gradually removing subsidies on gasoline and gasoline, as part of a program of economic reform in the country supervised by the International Monetary Fund.
The decisions decided to sell commercial fuel through 15 private companies at a rate of 120 pounds per liter of gasoline and 106 pounds per liter, while subsidized fuel was allocated to services by 56 per liter of gasoline and 46 pounds per liter of gasoline.
