Tankers carry out so-called \u00abship-to-ship\u00bb operations, blending Russian oil with other grades. This makes it more difficult to trace the origin of the crude and facilitates its delivery to Asian markets.<\/p>\n<h2>Circumventing Western sanctions and the role of the shadow fleet<\/h2>\n<p>Using Indonesian ports helps Russian suppliers to circumvent <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/rf-naftovi-sverdlovyny-sanktsii-kryza\/\">Western sanctions<\/a>. Transhipment operations are often carried out by tankers linked to the so-called \u00abshadow fleet\u00bb, which is not subject to Western restrictions. This allows Russian oil exports to Asian countries to continue.<\/p>\n<p>The routes for Russian oil shipments to Asia have changed: an increasing number of tankers are using Indonesian waters to blend the oil and then transport it on to China, India and other Asian countries.<\/p>\n<h2>Impact on the Asian energy market<\/h2>\n<p>Indonesia\u2019s active involvement in transhipment <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/ssha-poslablyat-sanktsii-rosiyska-nafta\/\">Russian oil<\/a> This affects the structure of the region\u2019s energy market. It creates additional opportunities for traders and also shifts the balance of power amongst oil suppliers in Asia. The blending of different grades makes it more difficult for buyers to identify the origin of the crude.<\/p>\n<p>The use of Indonesian ports for the transhipment of Russian oil is altering the logistics of energy flows in the region. This affects market transparency and makes it more difficult to monitor compliance with sanctions regimes.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indonesian ports, particularly Batam, are increasingly being used for the transhipment and blending of Russian oil, making it more difficult to monitor compliance with Western<\/p>","protected":false},"author":207433355,"featured_media":24260,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"\u041f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u0438 \u0406\u043d\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0435\u0437\u0456\u0457, \u0437\u043e\u043a\u0440\u0435\u043c\u0430 \u0411\u0430\u0442\u0430\u043c, \u0434\u0435\u0434\u0430\u043b\u0456 \u0447\u0430\u0441\u0442\u0456\u0448\u0435 \u0432\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0443\u044e\u0442\u044c \u0434\u043b\u044f \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0432\u0430\u043b\u043a\u0438 \u0442\u0430 \u0437\u043c\u0456\u0448\u0443\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f \u0440\u043e\u0441\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0457 \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438, \u0449\u043e \u0443\u0441\u043a\u043b\u0430\u0434\u043d\u044e\u0454 \u043a\u043e\u043d\u0442\u0440\u043e\u043b\u044c \u0437\u0430 \u0441\u0430\u043d\u043a\u0446\u0456\u044f\u043c\u0438.","rank_math_title":"\u041f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0432\u0430\u043b\u043a\u0430 \u0440\u043e\u0441\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0457 \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0437 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u0438 \u0406\u043d\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0435\u0437\u0456\u0457: \u0434\u0435\u0442\u0430\u043b\u0456","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u041f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0432\u0430\u043b\u043a\u0430 \u0440\u043e\u0441\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0457 \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438,\u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u0438 \u0406\u043d\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0435\u0437\u0456\u0457","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805618],"tags":[806753],"class_list":["post-24261","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economics","tag-806753"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433355"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24261"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24261\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24262,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24261\/revisions\/24262"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
