Oct. 2 (Bloomberg) — Russian oil output was little changed in September, as world prices fell and the government threatened to halt work at a Royal Dutch Shell Plc project that’s the nation’s biggest foreign energy investment.
Average daily oil output during the month was at 9.751 million barrels a day, or 39.91 million tons, compared with 9.759 million barrels a day in August, according to the Energy and Industry Ministry’s CDU-TEK unit. Exports rose 50,000 barrels a day to 5.45 million barrels a day, little changed from a year earlier.
