Business in Russia
A tanker carrying Russian oil from Sakhalin-2 arrived in Japan for the first time since June 2025. The fuel was purchased by Japanese oil refiner Taiyo Oil. The vessel is not subject to Western sanctions against Russia, as the restrictions do not apply to shipments of Sakhalin Blend crude.

The Russian oil was imported by Japanese refiner Taiyo Oil, which took delivery in December 2022. Tokyo-based Taiyo Oil is receiving 600,000 barrels of Sakhalin Blend crude oil from the Voyager tanker, according to vessel tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. The tanker loaded from the Prigorodnoye terminal on the southern tip of Sakhalin Island, off Russia’s east coast, on May 25, 2025.
