Oil Exports Return Normal at CPC Terminal: Report
Oil shipments from the marine terminal operated by the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) continue as normal following a drone attack on the CPC oil pipeline.
The pumping station, Kropotkinskaya PS, which is the largest CPC oil pumping station in Russia, was the object of the attack. The damaged station is being bypassed to allow oil transports to continue.
