Ob bay expor ts resume

摘要

Russian crude exports outside the Transneft pipeline system are poised to rise this month after Lukoil subsidiary Ritek resumed seaborne exports from the Ob bay and Gazpromneft tanker exports from the Novoportovskoye field on the Yamal peninsula gather pace. Ritek plans to export 103,000t this navigation season, down by 6pc from 2014. Shipments began on 18 July and should end by early September. Six cargoes are due to load on 20,000-25,000t tankers.
