Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly fall after Trump comments on weight loss drug pricing
Investing.com -- Russia’s seaborne oil product exports fell 17.1% in September compared to August, reaching 7.58 million metric tons, as drone attacks disrupted operations at several major refineries.
The decline in exports follows attacks on key facilities including Surgutneftegaz’s Kirishinefteorgsintez refinery, Lukoil’s Volgograd refinery, and Rosneft’s Samara group of refineries during August and September.
According to the data, exports through Russia’s Baltic ports of Primorsk, Vysotsk, St Petersburg, and Ust-Luga decreased by 15.4% month-on-month to 4.36 million tons in September.
The Black Sea and Azov Sea ports experienced an even steeper decline, with fuel exports dropping 23.2% from August levels to 2.52 million tons last month.
In contrast, Russia’s Arctic ports of Murmansk and Arkhangelsk saw a slight increase in oil product exports, rising 1.8% month-on-month to 30,200 tons in September.
The overall reduction in exports reflects diminished fuel production capacity as refineries dealt with the aftermath of the drone strikes.
