据经济时报9月10日消息：与去年同期相比，印度8月份的燃料需求猛增近11%，但低于上月，原因是季风降雨减缓了流动性和消费。印度石油部石油规划和分析小组(PPA)的数据显示，8月份燃料消耗总量为1600万吨，高于去年同期的1442万吨，但低于2021年7月的1683万吨。
几个月前达到疫情前水平的汽油销量同比增长13%，至269万吨，较2021年7月增长2.5%。
柴油是印度使用最多的燃料，其消费量同比跃升15.6%，达到560万吨，但由于雨季降雨导致卡车运输受阻，消费量同比下降8.7%。

Fuel demand jumps 11 percent in August
India's fuel demand soared almost 11 percent in August when compared with the same month last year but lower than the previous month as monsoon rains slowed mobility and consumption. Fuel consumption totalled 16 million tonnes in August, up from 14.42 million tonnes a year back but lower than 16.83 million tonnes in July 2021, data from the Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell (PPA) of the Oil Ministry showed.
Sales of petrol, which had reached pre-Covid levels a couple of months back, rose 13 per cent year-on-year to 2.69 million tonnes and was up 2.5 percent over July 2021.
Consumption of diesel - the most used fuel in the country - jumped 15.6 percent to 5.6 million tonnes from a year earlier but fell 8.7 percent from the previous month as monsoon rains stalled the mobility of trucks.
