Russia says Ukraine damaged CPC terminal on the Black Sea with drones

Russia said the attack damaged a terminal handling 1.5% of global oil supply and four storage tanks, while Ukraine said it hit a nearby facility too.

  • On Monday, Russia reported that Ukrainian drones attacked the Caspian Pipeline Consortium's Black Sea terminal, damaging the single point mooring and loading infrastructure.
  • The CPC terminal handles 1.5% of global oil supply and 80% of Kazakhstan's crude exports, making it a critical hub for international energy transportation.
  • Ukraine's military separately reported strikes on the nearby Sheskharis terminal about 9 miles from the CPC site, where fires broke out and six of seven loading stands were damaged.
  • Russia's defense ministry alleged the attack aimed to inflict economic damage on the terminal's shareholders, including energy companies Chevron and Exxon Mobil.
  • The operational impact remains unclear, and Reuters could not independently verify Russian claims while officials in Kyiv did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
