Last Update:

The Ministry of Energy supervises all upstream and downstream activities in the fuel market. However, on thei internet website (http://minenergo.com/) no information regarding fuel pricing could be found.

As an internet article states (→App. A1), high fuel prices in April 2011 and also fuel shortages brought the government to carefully monitor fuel prices. It is stated, that Russia, being the largest exporter of crude oil worldwide, faces shortages in the downstream sector, because oil companies raise their exports or withhold their stocks. A parliament spokesman said, that any neccessary change in the legal framework will be done quickly to avoid further shortages and high price levels. Also, the government discussed the option to lower fuel taxes in April 2011.

The independent website http://www.mfa.ru/mfa.asp (Moscow fuel association) publishes up-to-date pump prices from Russia. However, many information is outdated on their website.
