Marco Rubio Tours Jamnagar as Washington Courts Reliance's Refining Muscle
Rubio pressed for more Western Hemisphere crude processing as Reliance said the Jamnagar complex can handle 1.4 million barrels a day.
- On Wednesday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in Jamnagar, India, where billionaire tycoon Mukesh Ambani and his family welcomed him to tour Reliance Industries' massive refinery complex.
- Rubio arrived in Jamnagar after calling India a crude-refining "superpower," urging the country to scale up processing of Venezuelan crude to support global energy supplies.
- The Jamnagar complex processes 1.4 million barrels of crude daily and is the world's largest single-site refinery; Rubio also toured the Reliance Foundation-run Vantara, which houses more than 2,000 animals across 43 species.
