US LPG supplies to India crash on UAE inroads, premiums near record
The US share of India's LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) imports fell to 16 per cent in September, down from more than half last month, as UAE (United Arab Emirates) supplies surged. Delivered LPG premiums bounced back to nearly $450 per tonne. If your business buys LPG in bulk, landed costs may stay high. Review your supplier mix and plan ahead.
