Export of petrol refers to the international trade of refined petroleum (gasoline) from one country to another. Countries with large oil refining industries, such as the United States, Saudi Arabia, and India, export petrol to nations that either lack refining capacity or need additional fuel to meet demand. Petrol exports are crucial for the global energy market, impacting trade balances, fuel prices, and geopolitical relations. The process involves refining crude oil, transporting petrol via pipelines, ships, or trucks, and adhering to international trade and environmental regulations

Import of petrol refers to the purchase and transportation of refined petroleum (gasoline) from other countries to meet domestic fuel needs. Nations that lack sufficient oil refining capacity or have high fuel consumption often import petrol to ensure a steady supply for transportation, industry, and energy. Imports are typically delivered by sea, pipeline, or road and are influenced by global oil prices, trade agreements, and government policies.
