Reliance Industries Limited strongly denied Bloomberg's report claiming three Russian oil tankers were heading to its Jamnagar refinery. RIL clarified it received no Russian oil cargo in approximately three weeks and expects no deliveries in January. The company expressed deep displeasure that Bloomberg published the report despite RIL's denial, accusing the publication of ignoring its clarification and tarnishing its image. Bloomberg had reported three vessels carrying 2.2 million barrels of Urals crude were signaling Jamnagar as their destination for early January delivery. The world's largest oil refining complex in Gujarat faces heightened scrutiny following US sanctions on Russian oil producers Rosneft and Lukoil since October 2025. (PC: Times Now)
