Riyadh: Saudi Arabia will be increasing its aid to India by shipping another shipload of 60 tons of liquid oxygen and another 100 containers to ferry them, as India is battling a second wave of COVID-19.
Last month, Saudi Arabia shipped 80 tons of liquid oxygen to India.
India has turned to OPEC countries, especially Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Kuwait for sourcing medical oxygen in its battle against the pandemic.
Dharmendra Pradhan, Minister of Petroleum & Natural Gas and Minister of Steel, Government of India said in a series of tweets as…
Deeply appreciate the gesture of HRH Prince Abdulaziz, Min of Energy, KSA for the offer to send 3 ISO Containers with 60 tons of LMO, which are expected to arrive in Mumbai on 6 June 2021, and also to provide 100 ISO containers in the coming months to support #IndiaFightsCorona.
This gesture of Saudi Arabia is reflective of the close friendship and warmth between the leadership of Saudi Arabia and Hon’ble PM
The 3 containers and the additional containers that will come in the weeks ahead will remain with @IndianOilcl for 6 months as a goodwill gesture from the Saudi Government, and IOCL will source LMO from Linde Dammam on commercial terms for import into the country.
My discussions with HRH Prince Abdulaziz during this month, and his consistent support for India’s efforts against the COVID-19 pandemic, is indeed a manifestation of our deep friendship and familial relations which ultimately form the core of all our interactions.
