Russia begins gasoline imports from India
Russia has begun importing gasoline from India for the first time, amid declining refinery output due to Ukrainian attacks and an escalating fuel shortage in the domestic market. The first shipment of Indian gasoline arrived in August 2026. Data shows that transportation relies on ships traveling from the Indian Vadinar refinery to Egyptian ports before reaching Russia, with the possibility of additional shipments in the future. This development comes at a time when Moscow has intensified its imports from Belarus and neighboring markets, in an attempt to offset the reduction in refinery operations, which has fallen to about a third of the seasonal average. Last week, Ukrainian attacks targeted five refining facilities. This move is unusual and highlights a shift in Russian fuel trade, as Moscow depends on imports of gasoline to secure the domestic market and mitigate the effects of decreased production.
