Trade sources and data revealed that Russia is sending more crude oil produced in the Arctic region to China and India, and at steeper discounts. This comes after Europe put heavy sanctions on Russian supplies last month. As per reports, Arctic grades Arco, Arco/Novy Port and Varandey do not usually come to the East. But reportedly they are now doing supplying further afield after the European Union, G7 nations and Australia introduced a price cap on Russian oil in December, on top of an EU embargo on Russian crude by sea.

In November, the IEA estimated
that Russia earned just
$15.8 billion from oil sales. .
That is the second-lowest monthly
earnings Russia has reported this year
after bringing in just $14.7 billion in September.
The dipping revenue report comes despite Russia
increasing its export of crude oil to 8.1 million
barrels per day, its highest level since April.
In December, the EU and G7 introduced
a $60-a-barrel price cap on Russian oil.
On December 14, the price
of non-Russian oil had climbed
to about $81 a barrel.
President Vladimir Putin has said the cap will
not have a significant impact on Russia’s economy
but could harm the international energy market.
