Following Ukrainian drone strikes on a refinery in Tatarstan on June 12th, Russian oil giant Tatneft has begun limiting petrol sales at all its stations across Russia. The move indicates a potential disruption to fuel supplies caused by the attack. The company has not specified the exact sales limits, but confirmed the restrictions are in place company-wide. This is the first reported instance of rationing by a major Russian oil producer since the start of the war in Ukraine. Analysts suggest the strikes are impacting Russia’s refining capacity and domestic fuel availability. The incident highlights Ukraine’s increasing ability to target key Russian energy infrastructure. Further impacts on fuel prices and availability remain to be seen.
