Russia Extends Diesel Export Ban Through January 31 2027 to Stabilize Domestic Fuel Market

Russia has extended its ban on diesel exports by direct producers through January 31, 2027, according to a government decree signed on October 31, 2026. The restriction covers diesel fuel, marine fuel, and gas oils exported directly by producers from Russian territory. The government said the decision was taken to maintain stability in the domestic fuel market.

While the blanket ban on producer exports is now in effect through the end of January, Russia is still allowing some volumes of diesel to flow to the global market, meaning the restriction stops short of a total embargo. The extension signals continued concern in Moscow about domestic fuel supply conditions heading into the winter months.
