India lifts Russia crude imports to 2.66 million bpd in June as UAE supply nears record

India sharply increased crude oil imports from Russia and the United Arab Emirates in June, with Russian flows averaging 2.66 million barrels per day through June 19 and UAE shipments close to record levels. Over the same period, U.S. crude imports fell to 91,000 barrels per day. The shift followed disruptions after Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz, and limited transits resumed in late June after a U.S.-Iran ceasefire.
