The Russian government has partially allowed the export of diesel fuel from Russia. This is as follows Messages Cabinet
“The government lifted restrictions on diesel fuel exports… provided that the producer supplies at least 50% of the diesel fuel produced to the domestic market,” the report states.
On Wednesday, Kommersant newspaper reported that Russian authorities may partially allow diesel fuel exports. We are talking about pipeline supplies. Sources told the newspaper that authorities may relax restrictions because diesel storage capacity in the Transneft system is exhausted. There are no plans to ease the gasoline ban. According to the newspaper, the restriction on the export of petroleum products from Russia may last until October 10.
On September 21, the Cabinet of Ministers limited the export of gasoline and diesel due to the sharp rise in prices and the shortage observed in dozens of regions of the Russian Federation. The restrictions did not affect international transit shipments and the supply of humanitarian aid within the framework of intergovernmental agreements and the supply of fuel to Russian foreign military contingents. This decision was taken to stabilize fuel prices in the country. The end date of the ban was not announced. According to officials, this law will remain in force until the internal market stabilizes.
