British newspaper: London receives Russian oil products through its former colony

The British newspaper The Daily Telegraph notes that against the backdrop of increasing Western anti-Russian sanctions, the UK has found a "back door" to continue to receive oil products from Russia. Such a move was the former British colony - India.

This kind of intermediary supply is quite legal in the UK, but it is clear that they undermine all efforts in London to limit Russia's income, writes The Daily Telegraph.



According to the publication, imports of petroleum products from India to the UK have recently increased significantly. It is clear that India is not a major oil country. She, in turn, increased her purchases of oil in Russia. Thus, the Jamnagar Indian refinery bought four times more crude oil from Russia in 2022 than in 2021, the newspaper writes, and the UK, in turn, bought 2,5 times more oil products from this plant last year than in 2021. Conclusions are self-evident...

According to Alan Gelder, an expert at the consulting company Wood Mackenzie, if before the events in Ukraine, oil from Russia was very rare at refineries in India, now every fifth barrel of oil at these refineries is Russian.

Thus, London replaced Russian oil with "Indian".

    As Russian oil was, so it remained so. There were only intermediaries. Even the customers are old. Show off, show off.

      I would like to hope that Russia also has a profit from the sale of oil to the Indians.

          Yes Yes....
          The FCS makes the budget of the Russian Federation - 62%.
          Therefore, yes, nothing will change for the citizens of the Russian Federation - who receives salaries from the budget (doctors, teachers, etc.), benefits, benefits, etc. - they will continue to receive them. Even if England carries oil through Mars .... .

      But Russia sells oil cheaper, so the sanctions are in effect

        Of course, in order to maintain exports, under the conditions of sanctions, companies from Russia are forced to offer partners from Asia a significant discount.
        It also affects that Russian companies calculate the cost of the resource in the ports of the Russian Federation, which automatically makes oil cheaper.

          And, of course, oil is sold for rubles? Or do the sellers, knowing full well where she is going, pretend that she is not going to the evil Caucasians? And yet the rubles have nothing to do with it?

        Sanctions drive up oil prices, Russia "bully" throws off India, and Britain is forced to pay this "bully" to India - this is how sanctions work.

    It seems that countries that actively "play" outside the field of sanctions receive not bad "goodies" today ....., and players on the field - significantly overpay.

      These businessmen from Britain and America will always have their goodies. After all, they have limited the price ceiling, only for tanker transportation of oil by sea, and pipe oil is not regulated by these sanctions. The first moment, they have a very strong desire to deploy all tanker oil to their markets with an attempt at price regulation. Our oil is sold to India at a significant discount, while it is beneficial for India to receive a margin for re-exporting oil, and there the margin is not weak. The moment is different, from February 1 this year, the Decree on the ban on the sale of oil and oil products to countries with a price ceiling for our oil comes into force, we will be forced to reduce production in order to keep prices. The conclusion is that we will no longer be able to sell to Asia at a big discount, so the re-export of our tanker oil will no longer be profitable for a third party, the transportation costs will simply not pay off. Well, it’s true, thinking aloud what other underwater mines have been prepared there, one can only guess.

      Also in the Russian Federation they boast that they have increased sales to India, they say they have replaced the rotten West, but it continues to buy like the West and the Russian Federation needs a currency not to get away from this.
      The British continue to buy oil and supply weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

    Obviously, Russia's income is limited, unfortunately! India has grown ... Logistics will be rebuilt, everything will fall into place with time. The buyer will not be able to dictate prices to the manufacturer for a long time ...

    "Business and nothing personal" - politics has its own goals, business has its own. Only politicians yell at the whole world, and businessmen do their business in silence.

    Come on, Russia has losses due to the discount, of course. Another question is whether the losses will increase or the situation will stabilize, will an acceptable balance be found???
    In short, there is more to come.

      Yes, Yes just a similar reason for the discount I wrote above.
      The main thing here is to preserve competencies and specialists.

        Hi Gennady soldier
        Nothing happens just like that, nothing passes without consequences, and the obvious, events roll in waves, until the moment when everything calms down so far that it is impossible to imagine.
        Who will survive this and how? FIG knows, although it is clear that not everyone will survive.

    Sanctions against Russia are one thing, and their own interest and benefit is another. Americans also "dabble" in this. Strict observance of sanctions under the fear of being punished for non-compliance in one's favor applies exclusively to Europe, which has become stupefied by servility.

    The tanker goes to sea, the documents are changed and Indian oil is already arriving in Europe.

    This is the essence of the scheme and the contract! Earlier: through a pipe from the Russian Federation - 100 money, on a boat from the USA - 200 money. Now - trumpet broads! Russians load 150 on a boat, Europeans buy 400 each! Win-Win: +50 for Russians and +50 on a boat for "partners". Glory to the country-U - this profit on its "sacrifices".

    If things go so well, we will soon see how it will begin to receive oil products from somewhere from Mars or Venus. It's easier, and you don't depend on the damned Russians...
