Russian Refinery Runs Dip Slightly in April

REFINING

Refinery runs in Russian have dipped slightly so far in April with oil-processing rates down due to the maintenance season and amid production cut targets.

  • Domestic refinery runs during April 1-19 were down just 0.2% from March at 5.67mb/d according to Bloomberg sources.
  • The oil market has been closely monitoring refinery throughput and export flows after Russia originally pledged to cut production by 500kb/d in March which was later extended for the whole of 2023.
  • Earlier this month Russia’s energy ministry said output was cut by 700kbpd in March, but crude export data last week cast doubt on the size of Russia’s output reduction.
