FAQ

Urals (REBCO) frequently asked questions

Quality, pricing and refining questions about Urals (REBCO).

Urals pricing is heavily influenced by international sanctions regimes, export restrictions, and diplomatic relationships between Russia and importing countries. EU sanctions have redirected significant volumes to Asian markets, typically at deeper discounts. The "price cap" mechanism implemented by G7 countries creates additional pricing complexity, while shipping insurance restrictions and tanker availability affect transportation costs and market access.

Urals provides excellent value for refineries equipped with desulfurization units, typically trading at $3-5/bbl discount to Brent while offering competitive yields. Its medium gravity (31.7° API) produces good middle distillate yields crucial for European diesel demand. The crude's consistent quality from blending multiple Russian fields reduces operational risks, while established pipeline infrastructure ensures reliable supply logistics.
