Transport Fuels Exclusive: Russia increases gasoline imports from Belarus as domestic supplies shrink
Reuters ^ | 3/27/2024 | Staff

Posted on 03/27/2024 11:52:42 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Russia has increased gasoline imports from neighbouring Belarus in March to tackle the risk of shortages in its domestic market because of unscheduled repairs at Russian refineries after drone attacks, four industry and trade sources said on Wednesday.

Usually Russia is a net exporter of fuel and a supplier to international markets, but the disruption of Russian refining has forced oil companies to import.

Already Russia banned gasoline exports from March 1 to try to secure enough fuel for its domestic market after repeated Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian refineries since the start of the year.

Russia normally imports very little fuel from Belarus, although it turned to it last August-to-October, when it faced fuel shortages that led to a rapid rise in gasoline prices and prompted another oil product export ban.

This year, Russia has again increased gasoline imports from Belarus, and in the first half of March they reached almost 3,000 metric tons, Reuters sources familiar with the statistics said.

In February, Russia imported 590 tons, while in January, there were no shipments from Belarus.

You must think that bothers us or something.

How come you aren't bragging anymore about Ukraine winning the war? Just guessing, but it looks like it finally hit you when you got on egg prices. I know if I was Ukraine leadership and hired you to drum up support for Ua I would either fire you or shoot you for actually losing support due to your postings.
