Americas crude: California heavy sour not offered

摘要

A seller of San Joaquin Valley Heavy crude reported recently not being in the market to sell any of that California, heavy sour grade of crude. The seller had sold a cargo for the last three months, but due to increased demand will keep those barrels in the refining system, said the source. SJVH for delivery in September was last called around Midway-Sunset postings minus $1.50/b. US West Coast market participants were awaiting the sale of the Flying J refinery. That 66,000 b/d refinery is located in Bakersfield, California.
