Europe greener regulations for gasoline and diesel in effect from next year propose to cut output and shake up the regional oil products trade as well as lead to increase use of lighter, sweeter crudes, said analysts. The Auto Oil rules aim to cut pollution by improving vehicle technology and cleaning up fuels so petroleum products in Europe will be among the cleanest in the world by 2005.
