This year's sixth tanker with oil for Belarus, this time from Norway, arrived in the Lithuanian port of Klaipeda on Monday, writes LETA/BNS.

The Saga tanker came from Monistat, an industrial site in Norway where Equinor has an oil terminal, a crude refinery and other infrastructure, and docked at the Klaipeda oil terminal on Monday afternoon, according to the vessel tracking websites Marinetraffic.com, Myshiptracking.com and Vesselfinder.com.  


Klaipedos Nafta, the terminal's operator, told LETA/BNS that the Saga had delivered around 86,000 tons of oil. 


In March, four oil cargoes of 75,000-85,000 tons each were delivered for Belarus to Klaipeda from Russia: one from Ust Luga and three from Primorsk. That followed the delivery of around 80,000 tons of Norwegian oil for Belarus by the Breiviken tanker in January.
