Russia's Tatneft boosts oil exports to Slovakia and Hungary, Kommersant says
MOSCOW, Aug 29 (Reuters) -Russian companies, mainly Tatneft TATN.MM, have boosted oil exports to Slovakia and Hungary to replace supplies lost after Ukraine sanctions halted exports from Moscow-based Lukoil LKOH.MM, Kommersant newspaper said on Thursday.
Lukoil was banned by Kyiv from using the part of the Druzhba, or "Friendship", pipeline that runs through Ukrainian territory, partly supplying Hungarian and Slovakian refineries.
The two landlocked countries warned of possible fuel shortages from September unless a solution was found.
Hungarian energy company MOL MOLB.BU has still not received required oil volumes, including for the Slovnaft refinery in Bratislava, Kommersant reported, citing unnamed sources.
Tatneft did not reply immediately to a request for comment.
State-owned Russian pipeline operator Transneft TRNF_p.MM, which handles Russian oil supplies via Druzhba and certifies the suppliers, did not respond immediately to a request for confirmation of Tatneft supplies replacing Lukoil's volumes.
Fuel consultancy ExPro has said that the amount of Russian oil flowing to European countries via Ukraine rose to 1.09 million metric tons in July from 540,000 tons in June after complaints by Hungary and Slovakia about a large drop.
Kommersant said that Tatneft increased oil supplies via the southern spur of the Druzhba pipeline to 330,000 metric tons each for Slovakia and Hungary in July.
Tatneft accounted for about 77% and 92% of Russia's total oil exports to Hungary and Slovakia respectively last month, it said, adding that Russneft RNFT.MM had also started oil supplies to Slovakia.
Ukrainian officials have said that oil flows via the route remained unchanged but declined to give exact volumes of oil transit.
