Clean Fuel Export Flat

Exports of ultra-low sulfur diesel from the Baltic port of Primorsk, the country's main export outlet for the clean product, will be flat at 480,000 tons this month, an arm of Transneft said Thursday.

In addition to unchanged volumes of diesel fuel with sulfur content of 10 parts per million, it will also handle 120,000 tons of 500 ppm material, the product pipeline division Transnefteprodukt said.

It said in December that it started to ship 500 ppm sulfur diesel via Primorsk. Key suppliers of 10 ppm sulfur diesel to Primorsk are LUKoil, TNK-BP and Gazprom Neft.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
