India’s Iraqi Oil Imports Rise in February, Russian Shipments Decline

India’s crude oil imports from Iraq increased in February 2025, according to data from analytics firm Kpler.
India’s oil imports from Iraq increased 8.3% this month compared to January, surpassing 1.1 million barrels per day (bpd), the data showed.
Conversely, imports from Russia reportedly fell by 14.9% to an average of about 1.4 million bpd, marking the lowest level since January 2023. Saudi oil shipments to India also declined, slipping 0.7% month-on-month.
According to experts, to compensate for reduced Russian supplies, Indian refiners, the world’s third-largest oil consumers, increased purchases from Nigeria, Angola, Mexico, and Colombia, while the decline in Russian imports is attributed to tightened US sanctions.
