Saidi reports 12 fuel stations closed this year
The article focused on the efforts of the Jordan Electric Power and Mineral Resources Regulatory Authority in monitoring the fuel market in Jordan. It reported that cases of gasoline blending have been detected, and 12 fuel stations have been closed since the beginning of the year, out of a total of 770 stations nationwide. The measures include strict regulatory actions such as closures and sealing for one month, as well as halting fuel supplies to the stations. Additionally, 3,453 field inspections have been carried out, during which 35 samples were tested. These tests revealed violations related to ethanol content exceeding the permitted limit (5%) in two samples, which registered levels between 6% and 7%. These measures are part of a campaign targeting all stations to protect consumers and ensure compliance with regulations, amid calls for tougher penalties to address fuel manipulation, especially given the current economic conditions and rising prices.
