Türkiye, the third-largest buyer of Russian oil, has cut its imports from Russia by half amid repairs at the STAR refinery near Izmir. In August, imports fell to just under 200,000 barrels per day from 400,000 - 450,000 barrels per day earlier in the summer, according to market analysis firm Kpler. The repairs, which began on September 5 and are expected to last around two months, affect approximately 45% of all Russian oil supplied to the Turkish market. The STAR refinery, operated by Azerbaijan’s SOCAR, has a capacity of about 200,000 barrels per day, meeting around 20% of Türkiye's petroleum needs and primarily processes Azeri Light, Iraqi Kerkuk, and Russian Urals crude.
