They amounted to almost 500 billion rubles, which is the lowest figure since January 2023.<\/p>\n<p> The Russian Finance Ministry calculated June oil revenues based on the price of Russian Urals crude in May at $52.08 per barrel. This is the lowest price for the key export grade of Russian oil since March 2023.<\/p>\n<p> The international ruble-dollar exchange rate also strengthened in May, trading at an average of 80 rubles per US dollar, the highest level in two years.<\/p>\n<p> Because of this, Russian oil companies received only 4,190 rubles for each barrel sold, a level not seen since March 2023.<\/p>\n<p> In late April, the Russian Finance Ministry revised its budget deficit expectations for this year, predicting a much larger deficit than previously thought as U.S. tariffs and increased OPEC+ supplies have led to a sharp drop in oil prices. The country is using its welfare fund, designed to stabilize the economy, to cover the deficit.<\/p>\n<p> It was previously reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/yes-vidklav-znyzhennia-steli-tsin-na-rosiysku-naftu-cherez-konflikt-na-blyzkomu-skhodi-zmi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the EU has postponed a plan to lower the price ceiling for Russian oil, given the risk of rising energy prices due to the conflict in the Middle East<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian oil revenues fell to a two-year low in June due to lower global crude oil prices and a strengthening ruble.
