India’s Reliance Industries Ltd, operator of the world’s largest refining advanced, might keep away from shopping for Russian fuels for its crops following Western sanctions on Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine, a senior firm official stated.
“Even if we can source some of the feeds (from Russia), probably we will be out of it because of the sanctions,” Rajesh Rawat, senior vice chairman and enterprise head cracker, advised an business occasion on Wednesday.
Reliance buys Urals crude and straight run gas oil for its refineries from Russia. The non-public refiner largely buys its petrochemical feedstock from the Middle East and the United States.
Sanctions on Russia have prompted many firms and nations to shun its oil, miserable Russian crude to report low cost ranges.
Rawat stated in India a lot of the oil provides from Russia are going to the state-run firms.
“So probably, those feed streams will still continue, or may have a lesser impact compared to the private sector players. Because we deal with banks, and also even if we can source some of the feeds (from Russia), probably we will be out of it because of the sanctions,” Rawat advised the Asia Refining and Petrochemical Summit.
Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine started on Feb. 24, India’s high refiner Indian Oil Corp has purchased 3 million barrels of Russian Urals crude and Hindustan Petroleum has purchased 2 million barrels of the oil by means of tenders.
