I'm trying to look at this like a CIA/DIA analyst.

If the 4th GTA really has "Gasoline" then I think it was intended for an offensive, due to the fact that long term stability is an issue. If I was the 4th GTA commander and I had Diesel fuel I would have less of an "Use it or lose it" philosophy so I would be more comfortable as a strategic reserve.

Do we know anything about refinery(s) used? If refineries were an issue is low grade diesel more likely than gasoline?

What was the timeline for the fuel production? How long was the transport time? If it was gasoline is it nearing it's usable shelf life.
