    • UK Lowers Oil Price Cap on Seaborne Russian Crude Oil

      OFSI

      Today, the UK, alongside the EU, has announced that the Oil Price Cap on seaborne Russian Crude Oil will be lowered from $47.60 to $44.10 per barrel. The lowered Oil Price Cap of $44.10 per barrel comes into effect at 23:01 (GMT), Saturday, 31 January 2026. 

      This action will maintain regulatory alignment in targeting Russian revenues and is part of the UK’s ongoing commitment to supporting Ukraine in its struggle against Russia’s illegal war of aggression. 

      This will apply to all services captured by the Oil Price Cap, including maritime transportation and the provision, directly, or indirectly, of brokering services or financial services or funds, related to the maritime transport of Russian crude from a place in Russia to third countries or from one third country to another.
