Indian refiners face mounting crude supply disruptions from the Gulf region. Rising vessel attacks and transit bottlenecks are causing significant delivery delays. A tight tanker market further complicates securing necessary crude oil shipments. Refiners may be forced into unplanned refinery run cuts due to these issues. However, domestic fuel supply is not expected to be impacted significantly.
