Russia's seaborne diesel and gasoil exports fell in March after unplanned maintenance on local refineries, LSEG and market sources data showed.
Drone attacks in January and February hit Russian refineries owned by Rosneft at Ryazan, Syzran and Saratov, as well as Lukoil's Volgograd refinery.

In total, diesel and gasoil exports from Russian ports fell to about 3.8 million metric tons, down 5% from February, Reuters calculations based on LSEG and market sources data showed.

Diesel and gasoil exports from Russian ports to Turkey rose last month to 1.19 million tons, up 17% from February, while loadings for Brazil increased almost by a quarter on a monthly basis to 0.85 million tons.
Russia's March diesel and gasoil exports to African countries fell by half from the previous month to about 0.64 million tons in total, with Egypt, Morocco, Togo and Tunisia among the biggest importers, shipping data showed.
