China's gasoline exports fall 35.7pc in July

BEIJING, Aug 20 (Reuters): China's gasoline exports fell 35.7 per cent in July from a year earlier, customs data showed on Sunday, as refiners lowered crude runs and held back from shipments due to weakening profit margins.

Gasoline exports stood at 790,000 metric tons last month, or 5.77 million barrels per day, data from the General Administration of Customs showed. China exported 1.22 million tons of gasoline in July last year and 930,000 tons in June.
