The increase in diesel fuel prices comes from increased demand for this product, as Romania produces less of this fuel than it consumes, Wednesday said Mariana Gheorghe, chief executive officer of oil company OMV Petrom (SNP.RO).

Petrobrazi Ploiesti refinery of Romanian Oil Company Petrom was subject to a fire on Tuesday morning, which damaged three storage tanks but did not affect the overall operations of the refinery, the company said in a statement.
