Rosneft Selling $1.9Bln of Diesel to BP

Rosneft is to sell up to 1.8 million tons of ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel to BP from the Baltic Sea port of Primorsk for up to $1.9 billion, it said Tuesday.

Rosneft, in a regulatory filing that said its board had approved the deal, did not disclose the timeframe for supplies.

It will also sell 400,000 tons of crude oil from the Pacific port of Kozmino to BP Singapore with a combined price tag of up to $345 million, Rosneft added.

Earlier this year, Rosneft revealed deals worth more than $11 billion to sell its crude oil and products to BP, which owns almost 20 percent in the state-controlled oil company.

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.
