Rosneft begins limiting fuel sales at gas stations in Russia
Rosneft has imposed fuel purchase limits at its gas stations across Russia, the Zabaykalsky Krai Economic Development Ministry said in a post on the Max messenger, adding that drivers can buy up to 30 liters (7.9 gallons) of fuel at city gas stations and up to 50 liters (13.2 gallons) on highways. The ministry did not provide further details.
Rosneft, Russia's state-owned oil company, has imposed fuel purchase limits at its gas stations across the country as part of the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. Drivers can now buy up to 30 liters of AI-95 gasoline and 50 liters of AI-92 gasoline per vehicle at city gas stations, while highway limits stand at 50 liters of AI-95 and 13.2 gallons of AI-92 gasoline.
Diesel fuel can be purchased up to 100 liters per customer. The restrictions were reported in Krasnoyarsk and Yandex Gas Stations app, with additional reports from the governor of Karelia and drivers in Arkhangelsk, Penza, and Buryatia. The measures come amid concerns that Russia could face long-term damage to its business due to the ongoing war with Ukraine.
Ukrainian drones have also targeted several Rosneft oil refineries in recent weeks, with the Novokuibyshevsk refinery in the Samara region being attacked on October 30.
