UPDATE 1-Russia's Tatneft limits sales at all its fuel stations, Interfax reports Adds details, context
MOSCOW, June 16 (Reuters) - Russian oil producer Tatneft TATN.MM is imposing restrictions on the sale of petrol and diesel at all its stations across Russia, news agency Interfax reported on Tuesday.
Interfax quoted a company hotline as saying that temporary limits had been imposed on fuel purchases, and only cash payments were being accepted.
Tatneft is Russia's fifth-biggest oil company and has a network of hundreds of fuel stations across the country, with a strong presence in the Moscow region. The company did not provide an official comment on the report.
Moscow's mayor said earlier on Tuesday that a facility at the Moscow oil refinery owned by Gazprom Neft SIBN.MM had been damaged in a Ukrainian drone attack. Emergency services said a fire at the refinery had been extinguished and its operations were not affected.
The number of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian refineries has doubled since the start of 2026, leading to full or partial shutdowns of oil processing and a decline in the production of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, according to official data, social media, and Reuters calculations.
