In 2023, Russia surpassed Saudi Arabia to become China's largest oil supplier, defying sanctions. Chinese customs data revealed that Russia supplied 107 million tons of oil to China, equivalent to 2.1 million barrels a day. This highlights the ineffectiveness of Western efforts to deprive the Kremlin of funds for its war in Ukraine. China did not join any oil price ceiling imposed on Russia, and the average price of a barrel of Russian oil in 2023 was $77. Ural oil was cheaper than Saudi oil, solidifying Russia's position as the largest supplier of crude oil to China. Russia's dominance as China's top oil supplier is expected to continue, with plans to become the top gas supplier in the future.
