Russia diesel export ban - what happens next?
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Russia has temporarily banned exports of gasoline and diesel to all countries outside a circle of four ex-Soviet states with immediate effect in order to stabilise its domestic market. Russia is the single biggest global exporter of diesel/gasoil and could remove 700-900 kb/d of waterborne diesel supply from the global market, or ~3% of global demand. Gasoline exports account for a much lower volume, but since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict gasoline waterborne exports have increased to average around 200kb/d. We believe the market will quickly rebalance and the ban should conclude as domestic agricultural demand slows, as harvest season is completed.
