Thai B20 mandate set for end-April

April 8, 2019 |

In Thailand, the Bangkok Post reports that the government has set the end of April as the start date for the B10 blending mandate, rising from 7% blending currently. B20 is being eyed for buses and trucks as well as the government looks for ways to absorb the palm oil surplus that is hanging over the market and weighing on prices. B20 is already sold in some fueling stations. Demand for B10 is seen at 2 million metric tons, up from 1.4 million tons for B7, effectively wiping out the 600,000-ton surplus.
