Bolivia's Biopetrol seeks to expand imported fuel sales to 16 stations at international prices

Biopetrol, a Bolivian fuel retailer, has requested authorization to expand sales of imported gasoline and diesel to 16 stations, up from the current one gasoline and two diesel outlets in Santa Cruz. The move signals a shift toward market-priced fuel in a country with heavy fuel subsidies, potentially easing fiscal pressure but raising domestic prices.
