- Russia’s Novatek has suspended some operations at the Ust-Luga export terminal on the Baltic Sea, following a fire on 21 January according to S&P Commodity Insights that was suspected to be caused by drone attack, Ukrainian media said, cited by Reuters.
- Russia surpassed Saudi Arabia as the largest crude oil supplier to China in 2023 with Russian imports up 24.1% on the year to a record 107.02m metric tons (2.14mbpd) according to Chinese customs data on Saturday.
