Russia will dispatch its first tanker with diesel for the United States on Thursday, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said, according to the Vedomosti news outlet, after a deal with Donald Trump.
Russia lifted its self-imposed ban on diesel exports on October 9, introduced to tackle domestic shortages triggered by Ukrainian drone attacks on refineries, after reaching the deal with Trump to supply diesel to global markets.
Novak said on Wednesday the vessel will carry 40,000 metric tons of the fuel, adding that the paperwork on the fuel supply is nearing its completion, according to media reports. He did not name the port from which the cargo will be delivered.
Red diesel just means it has no road taxes applied
I don’t many people are using it. AFAIK, only states were lifting the restriction, which they technically can’t do since it includes federal taxes
Also that dye is designed to be visible for a very long time. I used red diesel in my heater once last winter and the red is still visible even though I’ve gone through a dozen tanks of kerosene since
…
Red diesel is diesel saved for agriculture use…
It’s dyed red, to show that’s what it’s for.
Now, I answered a question without you even asking one, please answer one I’m asking:
What did you think the point of saying it red was?
