India’s $15 billion oil exports to EU at risk amid new Russia sanctions: GTRI

21 Jul 2025 Evaluate

The Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI) has said that India's petroleum product exports worth $15 billion to the European Union (EU) may be at risk as Brussels moves to restrict imports of Russian crude oil refined in third countries. The 18th package of sanctions by the 27-nation EU included a set of measures largely aimed at curbing the revenues of Russia's oil and energy sector, such as an import ban on refined petroleum products made from Russian crude oil and coming from any third country.

GTRI said that a central component of the package is a ban on the import of refined petroleum products made from Russian crude and exported via third countries, excluding only a select few allies like the US, UK, Canada, and Switzerland. It said this measure will hurt nations such as India, Turkey, and the UAE, which have been refining Russian crude and selling diesel, petrol, and jet fuel to Europe.

According to the think tank, India exported $19.2 billion worth of petroleum products to the EU in FY24, but this dropped by 27.1 per cent to $15 billion in 2024-25. It added that India imported $50.3 billion of crude oil from Russia in FY2025, over a third of its total $143.1 billion crude bills.
