The Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources held a briefing on September 28, 2026, to provide updates on current fuel supply conditions and decisions made by the Task Force.
According to B.Dashpurev, State Secretary of the Ministry, over the past 24 hours, 1,135 tons of AI-92 gasoline were supplied to 95 filling stations in Ulaanbaatar, while 556 tons were delivered to 42 filling stations in rural areas.
“As of September 28, the national stock stands at 128 rail tank cars, equivalent to 7,680 tons, of AI-92 gasoline. Of this volume, 86 rail tank cars, or 5,160 tons, have already arrived at the Tolgoit, Rashaant, Darkhan, Erdenet, and Sainshand railway stations.
AI-92 gasoline supplies remain uninterrupted, with daily deliveries continuing to rural areas, although in limited quantities.
“Distribution will stabilize and queues will disappear once a nationwide reserve equivalent to 20 days of consumption is secured. Currently, with only an 11-day reserve, supplies are uneven, leading to temporary difficulties.
As part of efforts to diversify fuel supply sources, the first 10 rail tank cars from an 8,000-ton shipment of gasoline contracted from China have arrived in Ulaanbaatar and entered the distribution network. The remaining volume is scheduled to be imported through the Zamiin-Uud border crossing and the Tes Petroleum facility.
In addition, 12,000 tons of fuel from South Korea are ready for delivery, with companies currently arranging distribution. Going forward, Mongolia plans to increase imports of Euro-5 fuel from South Korea and China, while continuing regular imports of Euro-2 AI-92 gasoline from Russia.
A reduction in fuel shipments from the Angarsk Oil Refinery, attributed to the situation in Russia, has contributed to shortages and queues in the domestic market. Shipments from Russia are expected to increase in the coming days.
Meanwhile, construction is underway on storage facilities with a total capacity of 300,000 cubic meters to increase strategic fuel reserves. A capacity of 150,000 cubic meters is scheduled to be commissioned this year. The Government aims to establish a three-month strategic fuel reserve by 2028”.
