Gasoline Sales and Vehicle Tank Control
The director of the National Oil Products Distribution Company in the Kermanshah region referred to the sale of gasoline through the control of vehicle tanks exiting the country, stating that of the total border sales, about 93 thousand liters were allocated to this sector. Additionally, with the launch of a digital dip measurement system for truck tanks at the province's borders, the monitoring process for outgoing fuel has been rapidly facilitated.
Bahrami further clarified that based on the floating border price, the amounts related to fuel are calculated and deposited into the government treasury account. This process is carried out to manage resources and better control petroleum products at the borders.
