Sources tell Reuters the Baltic ports of Primorsk and Ust Luga have suspended exports.
The governor of the Leningrad region said several fuel reservoirs had been set ablaze at Primorsk, but did not mention the shutdown.
The attacks also caused flights in the region to be suspended, creating travel headaches for people at the St Petersburg airport.
Over a million barrels of crude are exported from Primorsk every day and the shutdown would worsen shortages created by conflict between Israel, the US and Iran.
