Russia’s oil processing in the past week remained close to its highest daily refining runs in more than eight months amid decreased seaborne exports.

The nation’s refineries processed around 5.65 million barrels of crude a day from Dec. 14 to Dec. 20, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. That’s down some 50,000 barrels a day, or 0.88%, from the previous seven days, when average daily refinery runs reached the highest since early April.
