Since February 2023, after the expiration of the contract with Rosnefta, the supply of Russian oil covered only about 10% of the company’s need for this raw material. “These were only pipeline supplies for which no international sanctions were imposed,” the company said.
At the end of February 2023, the Russian side suspended the supply of raw materials through the Druzhba pipeline to Poland, which led to the termination of the last contract with Tatnafta for the pipeline supply of oil to Poland.
