Saudi Arabia is buying Russian oil for a number of reasons, including:

To meet its own energy needs. Saudi Arabia is the world's largest oil exporter, but it also imports some oil to meet its own domestic needs. Russian oil is a relatively cheap option for Saudi Arabia, and it can help to diversify the country's oil imports.

To profit from the arbitrage opportunity. The price of Russian oil has been discounted due to sanctions imposed by the United States and Europe. Saudi Arabia can buy Russian oil at a lower price and then sell it at a higher price in other markets. This can be a profitable venture for Saudi Arabia.
