US courting Reliance's refining muscle to keep oil flowing, not curb Russian crude, analyst says

Marco Rubio's recent visit to Jamnagar emphasizes strengthening energy ties between the US and Reliance Industries. With a capacity of 1.4 million barrels per day, Jamnagar plays a crucial role in global diesel exports. The US seeks to stabilize energy flows while urging India to diversify away from Russian oil. Reliance is also positioned to process Venezuelan crude, enhancing Washington's interests in the region.
