Oil supplies by rail instead of Druzhba oil pipeline to start in May
 

Russian Railways will start oil deliveries substituting volumes earlier pumped via the Druzhba oil pipeline in May, the corporate press service reports.

Trains with railtank cars are already in the course of loading with oil. First shipments are expected in early May. Railwaymen are ready to support carriage of all the declared oil volumes within the required timeframe," the press service said.

Russian Railways is ready to provide up to five thousand railtank cars for oil carriage to Western buyers in connection with the oil contamination problem in the Druzhba oil pipeline, the company told TASS last week.
