NEW DELHI MAY BUY 50 MN BARRELS OF STRANDED URALS

- SAURAV ANAND

INDIA COULD ABSORB a significant portion of the 6.9 million tonne of Russian oil (50.577 million barrels) worth €2.3 billion ($2.99 billion) currently stranded at sea, as disruptions to oil flows in the Strait of Hormuz and a US waiver for Russian barrels give Moscow a strategic opening to find buyers for its crude.

At its peak in mid-2024, India’s imports of Russian oil exceeded 2 million barrels per day. By February 2026, purchases had fallen to about 1.06 million barrels per day, according to analytics firm Kpler, as India curtailed imports under pressure from Washington. Analysts, however, predict a rebound following the US waiver and the availability of stranded cargoes.
