Bloomberg learned about a new high in oil shipments from Russia

Over the past four weeks, Moscow has exported about 3.55 million barrels of crude oil per day on average , most of which went to India and CHINA , this is a new maximum since the beginning of last year, BLOOMBERG calculated

The shipment of Russian crude oil to international markets, despite the sanctions imposed by the West , has practically not decreased, and over the past four weeks it has grown to maximum values, Bloomberg reports.

According to the agency's own calculations, from April to May, Moscow exported on average about 3.55 million barrels. per day, which is almost 0.4 million barrels more than in the same period last year. Bloomberg, which has been keeping its own statistics since January last year, notes that this is the highest figure in the history of observations.

The agency notes that due to Western sanctions, RUSSIA was forced to reorient the flow of raw materials to Asia, as well as reduce its own production. The main buyers of its oil over the past month were India (1.87 million barrels), China (1.01 million) and Turkey (0.18 million). The rest was sent to "unknown countries". Russian to Europealmost no oil was delivered over the past month.

Despite the fact that Russia has begun to supply more oil, Moscow's real income from the sale of raw materials is declining, writes Bloomberg. The agency attributes this to a discount on Russian varieties, as well as additional costs associated with shipping insurance.

The European Union and the G7 countries last December introduced a cap on Russian oil prices - $60 per barrel, in February the restriction was extended to petroleum products. In response, Russia banned the supply of raw materials to countries that set a price ceiling and redirected supplies to the Asian market. In March, China and India accounted for up to 91% of such exports, according to estimates by the analytical company Vortexa.

In early April, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak announced a decision to extend the voluntary cut in oil production by 500,000 barrels until the end of the year. per day. At the end of the month, he announced that oil production in Russia this year would decrease by 20 million tons, compared to last year - to 15 million tons. In the same month, the Russian government suspended the publication of statistics on oil and gas production until April 1, 2024 .
