Iran to Receive Gasoline from Reliance

Reliance is reportedly transporting gasoline into Iran through Petronas. This becomes a dispute as the Indian refiner has previously instructed traders not to transport its gasoline into Iran following President Barack Obama new push toward international sanctions against Iran.

Reliance has been seen to be prepared not to become a prime target for US legislators which may result into potential punitive measures by the United States.

Petronas would be the second firm after Kuwait’s fuel supplier IPG making deliveries into Iran. It is possible that Petronas through its subsidiary Petronas Trading Corporation (Petco) is selling Reliance gasoline cargo through another trader which may have excluded the additional clause.

Nitrogen Enriched Gasoline by Shell

Shell has unveiled its new nitrogen-enriched gasolines at Shell stations across the U.S codenamed Nitrogen Enriched Gasolines.

The new gasoline contains a unique cleaning system designed to purge carbon deposits in the engine. The new Nitrogen Enriched cleaning system protects and cleans up carbon deposit build-up on intake valves and fuel injectors.
It is believed that the usage of nitrogen as an active cleaning molecule in the new fuel significantly makes it more stable at higher temperatures in modern, tougher conditioned engines. The nitrogen increases the properties of resisting thermal breakdown better than conventional cleaning additives.
