Russia's Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) has opened 58 cases against oil companies and independent participants in the fuel products market over alleged violations of competition law, the agency told the newspaper Kommersant.
As part of the enforcement action, FAS said it issued 91 warnings to the companies and market participants involved.
The agency did not name the specific companies under investigation or detail the exact nature of each alleged violation, according to the report.
FAS has periodically scrutinized Russia's fuel market in recent years amid concerns about pricing practices and market competition among oil producers and independent fuel sellers, particularly during periods of price volatility at the pump.
The outcome of the cases, including any penalties that may follow, was not disclosed in the report.
