Guyanese oil: India’s 11,000-mile run for oil as US tightens Russia rules

The journey of around 11,000 miles (17,700 kilometers) highlights the lengths to which Indian refiners are going to source non-Russian barrels after the US stepped up restrictions on the discounted oil that’s become very popular in India over the last few years.
