Ukraine 's allies have been intensifying efforts to enforce the $ 60 per barrel price cap.

Ukraine 's partners have been trying to prevent Western insurers and companies from transporting Russian oil traded above the cap.

Russia soon began to dodge the effects by using a "shadow fleet" of uninsured tankers.

Insurance companies are not expected to verify that oil is being transported below the cap, but are required to request "attestations" from traders.
