  "account": "Consumers and businesses must brace for a prolonged diesel shortage extending well into 2027, warns the International Energy Agency (IEA) in its monthly report published on Wednesday. The agency's assessment is that the situation in diesel markets is extremely tight due to unusually heavy depletion of winter stockpiles and restricted production. As a result, refinery profit margins for diesel surged to a record high of nearly $95 per barrel in September. The shortage stems from production disruptions caused by attacks linked to the Iran war. According to the agency, diesel exports from the Middle East and Russia fell by a combined 1.3 million barrels per day in September alone. To curb prices, IEA member countries are now coordinating the release of 100 million barrels of oil and diesel from their strategic reserves, though the impact is limited. The IEA has also cautioned of far-reaching economic consequences. The record diesel prices have already driven up commodity costs, strained real incomes, and impacted economic growth.",
