Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Monday further restricting access to information about energy products and oil exports in response to measures imposed by the United States and other Western countries. The expanded rules cover Russian oil refinery processing volumes and product output, as well as the names, quantities and prices of exported energy products, the identities of sellers, buyers and intermediaries, payment settlements, delivery schedules, transport vehicles, routes, terminals and storage facilities, including geographic coordinates. Aggregated customs statistics and planned sales volumes are also classified as restricted information. The decree bars publication of the covered data through the media and internet, except when companies disclose information about their own activities. Access remains possible with the data owner’s consent, while state agencies may obtain it within their legal authority. The government has 10 days to identify the relevant product codes and approve rules for automated processing of state-system data.
