Tanker with Russian oil worth $68 million is heading for Rotterdam


An American tanker was spotted in the Black Sea, which is sailing from the port of Novorossiysk (Russia) to the port of Rotterdam (Netherlands).

The tanker Mediterranean Voyager is carrying about 100,000 tons of Russian oil, according to the monitoring group of BlackSeaNews and the Black Sea Institute for Strategic Studies.

The cost of such a quantity of Russian Urals-type oil is approximately $68 million. This is equivalent to the price of 10 Russian Kalibr cruise missiles.
