Latest actual data: 2020
Notes: Belarus purchases crude oil from Russia at a discounted world market price. Due to internal tax changes in Russia, this discount is projected to gradually fall to zero by the end of 2024. Current WEO projections for Belarus are based on information provided by the authorities on a bilateral oil price deal with Russia that is being negotiated, but is not yet formally signed. The dynamics of the imported oil price deflator is set by world prices as well as by the discount, so it does not follow world prices. Deflator of oil exports reflects (i) crude oil and (ii) oil products. Oil products are priced differently from crude oil. The historical values are taken from the authorities' data. Projections should broadly match WEO's numbers in terms of percentage changes.
Base year: 2009
Methodology used to derive volumes: Cost index divided by Fisher price index.
Formula used to derive volumes: Fisher
Chain-weighted: No. Last update of weights was 2008.
Trade System: General trade
Excluded items in trade: In transit; Other;. Excluded items include transit goods and goods from U.N. methodology.
