Petronas unit to up Euro 5 diesel output


Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) and a consortium led by Japan's JXTG Holdings Inc are among the companies interested in buying a stake in India's Bina oil refinery, a source close to the matter said.

MELAKA: Petronas through its subsidiary, Malaysian Refining Company Sdn Bhd (MRCSB), plans to invest more than RM1.5bil to increase the production of Euro 5 diesel for domestic consumption.

MRCSB chief executive officer and managing director Hashim Majid said the company, which supplies about 70% of petrol and diesel demand in the local market, aspired to become the main producer of Euro 5 diesel by 2020.
