... but purchases rise amid trade talks, diversification push
Business Standard
|October 03, 2025
Crude oil shipments loaded in the US for India delivery have jumped significantly in the past two months, August and September 2025, signalling New Delhi's approach of boosting energy trade with Washington amid ongoing bilateral trade talks.
Crude oil loading refers to volumes of oil loaded at a producing country's port for respective destinations. Oil shipments loaded in the US typically take around two months for delivery in India.
Loadings of crude oil headed for India stood at an average 398 thousand barrels per day (kbpd) in August and 341 kbpd in September, according to data sourced from maritime intelligence firm Kpler.
This is a huge jump from 254 kbpd loadings witnessed in June and 166 kbpd in July.
The US has levied an additional 25 per cent tariff on India, taking the total tariff to 50 per cent, for purchasing Russian oil, arguing India is indirectly funding the Ukraine war. India has maintained that it would prioritise national interests and economic security.
