Iran: The Cement Industry Employers' Association has confirmed that cement plants will store heavy fuel oil to cope with a potential shortage of gas in the winter. The association told the Iranian Labour News Agency that plants had been granted permission to store up to 15 days worth of heavy fuel oil following negotiation with the Ministry of Oil. Fuel storage is a sensitive issue locally due to the potential for misuse in the black market. The cement sector faced gas and electricity shortages earlier in 2021.
