 The Client Study provides thorough examination of the recent trends in Russian refining. From the basis of extensive downstream consulting and research experience RPI experts have processed a massive amount of industry data and interviews with industry players to come up with a study that goes deep into analysis of the sector's historical development and offers an outlook for the development of Russian downstream and exports of oil products. The Future of Russian Refining and Exports of Oil Products study discusses how Russian downstream industry will cope with growing demand in Europe for Russian diesel and falling demand for fuel oil globally, what will happen to refinery throughput and how crude oil export infrastructure will influence downstream industry development
Russian refining has been growing steadily over the last several years. However, the outlook for the sector remains to be hard to define. Some of the key questions that industry players face today are the following:

• How will the Russian oil products mix develop in the coming years?
• What are the chances that Russian refiners will reduce throughput, given that they refine so much oil today?
• Will transportation infrastructure cope with the growth in export volumes?
• What are the opportunities and risks for me in the downstream sector?
• Will there be enough supply of gas oil?
• What is the outlook for procurement by Russian refiners?
