The European Union has issued an alert regarding a possible shortage of jet fuel. Demand for fuel has not yet been met, and the situation is expected to worsen during the week. Local reports indicate uncertainty regarding future fuel availability. Petroperu President stated the Iquitos refinery is currently paralyzed due to a lack of crude oil for refining. The Talara refinery, the largest in Peru, is at risk of stopping operations. Additionally, the Conchán refinery, which primarily supplies Lima, faces potential shutdown. The president noted that 2 billion dollars are required to address the situation. Petroperu president warned that refineries could face paralysis starting the first week of May if no actions are taken to address supply issues. The state oil company currently holds a 20% to 25% market share.

The European Commission is considering minimum reserve requirements and increasing storage levels to mitigate the risk. The report noted that 1,000 flights were affected in Scandinavia during April.
