Thailand’s fuel shortage crisis is starting to ease with government interventions targeting supply and distribution, verified by the Department of Energy Business (DOEB). Measures include increasing reserve requirements for oil traders and accelerating distribution through lifted restrictions on daytime oil truck deliveries. The government continues to subsidize fuel but warns of possible price increases if the Oil Fuel Fund struggles. Refineries are ramping up output to meet demand, and additional measures such as selling “dead stock” have helped alleviate pressure at service stations. The situation remains delicate due to global oil market volatility and financial strain on the Oil Fuel Fund.
