MOSCOW - Russia is using rail, storage tanks and ships to remove contaminated oil from an export pipeline, and has so far extracted around 2 million tonnes of the tainted oil - or over a third of volumes hit, industry sources and data showed.
Russia, Belarus and Ukraine still have the lion’s share of contaminated crude in their pipeline systems - or up to 2 million tonnes, with another roughly 1 million stuck in Poland and Germany, according to the traders and industry sources. In June, another 100,000 tonnes are expected to be dispatched to Novorossiisk by rail from Zhecha, sources said.
Permitted levels have a maximum norm of 10 ppm, but some European refineries can not process oil at that level and need much lower ppm content - or risk damage to their equipment.Russia has also agreed with Hungary to store 100,000 tonnes of tainted oil. According to the industry sources, by May 21 Hungary has received a total of 60,000 tonnes of contaminated Russian oil.
On Wednesday evening, Slovakia started to receive clean Russian oil via the Druzhba pipeline thanks to the cleaning efforts but there are no flows to Hungary and the Czech republic, according to traders.
