It is indicated that the tanker Capricorn Sun, chartered by Shell, loaded oil off the coast of Louisiana in the United States and unloaded on August 3 at the German port of Rostock. According to preliminary estimates, the ship was carrying about 570,000 barrels of oil.
The Rostock oil terminal on the Baltic Sea is connected by pipeline to two oil refineries in the cities of Schwedt and Leuna with a capacity of 233,000 barrels per day and 240,000 barrels per day, respectively.
It should be noted that in mid-July, Russian Urals oil was offered at a discount of $40 compared to the reference Brent brand.
It was also reported that following the results of June, the income of oil and gas corporations of the Russian Federation decreased by another 154 billion rubles, or 18%. And compared to April’s record – more than double.
