Two key oil ports on Russia’s Black Sea coast halted loading of tankers after overnight warnings of drone attacks.
The stoppages, which are temporary and precautionary, apply to the Caspian Pipeline Consortium terminal and the Sheskharis facility, both of which are near Novorossiysk.
The CPC halt was confirmed by a spokesman for the operator, who said that such stoppages are routine when alerts are in place. A person with knowledge of the matter said that Sheskharis also stopped.
Russia’s crude-pipeline operator Transneft PJSC, which runs the Sheskharis terminal, didn’t immediately respond to emailed requests for comment.
