July purchases were the highest since India began importing large volumes of discounted Russian crude following the outbreak of the Ukraine war in 2022.According to ship-tracking data from Kpler, India imported a little over 5 mbd of crude in July, marginally higher than in June.Russia\u2019s share in India\u2019s crude imports hits 55.5%<\/span>Supplies from Russia rose to 2.8 mbd from 2.7 mbd in June, taking its share in India\u2019s crude imports to 55.5%.Nikhil Dubey, lead analyst at Kpler, said that amid the evolving geopolitical situation \u2014 earlier around the Strait of Hormuz and now around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait \u2014 Russian crude supplies have once again proven to be among the most reliable.\u201cAnother reason for the strong Russian imports is the continued availability of Russian cargo, as drone strikes on Russia\u2019s refining infrastructure have reduced domestic refining activity, leaving more crude available for export,\u201d Dubey said. While purchases from Russia have increased, refiners said discounts on Russian Urals crude have almost disappeared.The July data also suggest Indian refiners have started restoring purchases from West Asian suppliers after supply disruptions in the Persian Gulf during the conflict.Saudi Arabia recorded the biggest increase among major suppliers, with exports to India rising to 4.2 lakh barrels per day (bd) in July from 2.9 lakh bd in June. Imports from Iraq continued to recover after falling to zero in April, with purchases in July nearly doubling to 1.3 lakh bd from 67,100 bd in June, marking the third consecutive monthly increase since supplies resumed in May. Kuwait also returned to India\u2019s import basket, shipping 51,600 bd after recording no exports during April, May and June.The return of Iraqi and Kuwaiti crude, along with higher imports from Saudi Arabia, suggests crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz have largely normalised after disruptions during the conflict, allowing Indian refiners to increase purchases from Gulf producers.Among other suppliers, imports from the UAE declined to 4.6 lakh bd in July from 5.1 lakh bd in June, though it remained India\u2019s second-largest source of crude.<\/div>\n NEW DELHI: India\u2019s crude oil
