Iraq to hike Basrah Light loadings

摘要

1. March-loading Mideast Gulf crude came under pressure, with Asia-Pacific refiners heading towards maintenance programmes in April. March-loading Qatari Al-Shaheen traded $2.60/bl below Mideast Gulf marker Dubai, its deepest discount in five years. And Abu Dhabi’s Murban traded at premiums of 20￠/bl to the Adnoc official price, down from premiums of 20-50￠/bl last month, despite Adnoc cutting its official prices.
