India’s Largest Refinery Quietly Restarts Russian Oil Imports After US Sanctions: Report
Reliance resumed purchases from non-sanctioned Russian producers to support domestic refining, with nearly 2.2 million barrels arriving at Jamnagar, accounting for over 40% of imports last year.
- This month, Kpler shows at least three tankers carrying nearly 2.2 million barrels of Urals crude signalling Reliance Industries Ltd.'s Jamnagar refinery after restarting some purchases.
- Reliance paused deals with Rosneft PJSC and Lukoil PJSC before restarting purchases from non-sanctioned Russian producers; it was the world's top buyer for most of 2024–2025 after halting exports in November.
- The vessels' suppliers include Alghaf Marine DMCC, Redwood Global Supply FZ LLC, RusExport and Ethos Energy, but a Reliance spokesman said no committed January deliveries exist despite tankers signalling Jamnagar.
