Black Sea Urals exports rise

摘要

Russia’s pipeline crude exports to non- CIS destinations rose by 2.7pc last month to 4.09mn b/d. Loadings at Novorossiysk on the Black Sea and deliveries through the Druzhba pipeline were up, while loadings at the Baltic port of Primorsk fell. Urals loadings at Novorossiysk surged by nearly a quarter to 829,000 b/d, with 450,000t delayed from January by storms. Exports to central and east European refineries were up by 9pc to 1.02mn b/d, with Poland’s Plock and Gdansk driving the rise.
