Seven tankers are already transporting Russian diesel to the USA. Seven tankers are carrying 2.1 million barrels of diesel, which is a third of the total volume of the "diesel deal" (6 million barrels). The first Taurus tanker left St. Petersburg on October 11th and is bound for Beaumont, Texas, but is expected to arrive in 2-3 days. The remaining tankers go to Norfolk (Virginia), Corpus Christi (Texas) or the Atlantic coast of the United States.
