CHINA National United Oil Corp, the nation's second-largest fuel trader, plans to import about 90,000 metric tons of gasoline in April to ease supply shortages, a company official said.
The state oil trader, also known as Chinaoil, plans to buy the fuel in three cargoes for delivery next month, said the official, who asked not to be named because of company rules. Chinaoil, a unit of PetroChina Co, hasn't imported gasoline since November as domestic supplies have been adequate.
