Russia limits oil data to prevent 'manipulation' of market participants

摘要

Russia is limiting the publication of data on oil production and exports to prevent manipulation and pressure on market participants amid current sanctions and restrictions on the country, the energy ministry's statistical unit said April 14. The Central Dispatch Administration, or CDU, failed to publish March data on production and exports on the expected date, April 2, with an update on the 25th of the month now also apparently ruled out.
