Deora, a member of the delegation accompanying Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on a visit to Saudi Arabia, said India was looking for doubling of crude oil supply from Saudi Arabia as its three grass-root refinery projects at Bhatinda, Bina and Paradip which are near completion.
Naimi assured Deora that his country will increase allocation of crude oil for supply to India from about 25.5 million metric tons (MMT) per annum to about 40 MMT, according to an official statement.
