====== Urals ======

In total volume terms, <wrap hi>Urals is Russia’s key crude, at about 1.8 million barrels a day from three western ports</wrap>.((https://archive.ph/gOqoI#selection-2353.0-2356.0)) ((2025))

The grade is shipped through the ports of Primorsk and Ust-Luga on the Baltic and Novorossiysk on the Black Sea.((https://archive.ph/gOqoI#selection-2365.0-2368.0)) ((2025))


Urals — <wrap hi>named after the mountainous, oil-rich region</wrap> — got an extra boost from high demand in Asia, where Russian producers are elbowing aside Saudi oil.((https://archive.ph/C3XQi#selection-455.88-459.1))

===== Clogging =====

Through such deals, India has absorbed most of the so-called Urals crude that Russia previously exported to the EU market. However, some Indian refineries have complained that the heavy Russian blend has been clogging old refinery equipment, according to three people familiar with the matter.((https://archive.is/vAI2y#selection-7683.0-7686.0))


Das Barrel Brent (das in der Nordsee gefördert wird und als Preisreferenz dient) erreicht im März 120 US- Dollar, während Urals (die gängigste russische Sorte), das mittlerweile nur schwer Abnehmer findet, von Russland mit grossem Rabatt abgesetzt wird – es kostet 30 bis 40 US-Dollar weniger als Brent, gegenüber Preisunter- schieden von 2 bis 3 US-Dollar vor dem Krieg.
