Reserve stock can last ‘up to 38 days’
The Ministry of Energy said Thailand has a two-month oil reserve and it will search out alternative sources to ensure energy security if the Iran war escalates to other countries in the Mideast.
Deputy permanent secretary Veerapat Kiatfuengfoo said Thailand had an in-country reserve of 4.92 billion litres of crude and refined oil as of Feb 23, and this could meet demand for 38 days.
In addition, 1.75 billion litres of Thailand-bound crude were already enroute from and outside the Strait of Hormuz, and another 1.12 billion litres from other sources were also being delivered to Thailand. This could meet demand in Thailand for an additional 23 days.
In total, Thai reserves could meet demand for 61 days, Mr Veerapat said.
