France’s Gravenchon refinery operated by North Atlantic has agreed to increase production of specific fuels by 10 per cent, after talks between the French government and refiners over the current energy market situation, Reuters reports, quoting Delegate Minister for the French Energy Ministry Maud Bregeon.

This equates to approximately 12,000 metric tonnes of fuel oil and 15,000 tonnes of diesel being added to the market and should help mitigate specific supply difficulties, she added.
