On 10 January 10 , U.S. sanctions announced on the Russian oil carrying “shadow ship”, and further increase the costs of transport by sea , reports the media group Bloomberg.
As the mini agency was told by brokers, transporting Russian ESPO oil by sea to China is costing now nearly five fold more than the public sanction.
Russia’s tariff for oil transport from the Kozmin port in the Russian Far East to China has risen this week up to 7 million. last week it reached 5.5 million dollars, and after the announcement of sanctions 1.5 million dollar.
Bloomberg emphasises that China’s current ports are all more concerned about the violation of the sanctions and reluctant to advocate for Russia’s import oil, mostoftheshipsthathaverecentlycarriedEUoilhavebeenincludedontheblacklist.The increase in ratesattractedsubsidiarieswhichuntilnowservedthewesternroutes.
