Tuapse product exports to dip

摘要

Product exports from Russia’s Black Sea port of Tuapse are due to fall by 2.2pc from November, on a daily basis, to 1.6mn t this month. Gasoil and diesel exports are due to fall to 477,000t because of lower supplies of high-sulphur product from the 62,000 b/d Krasnodar plant. The plant will supply some for Concept Oil, traders say. Glencore buys Krasnodar gasoil at Tuapse. Loadings of 10ppm sulphur diesel are due to reach 156,000t in December, up from 122,000t in November, reflecting higher supplies from Rosneft’s Samara complex. The 140,000 b/d Kuibyshev refinery finished hydrotreater maintenance early this month and is now gradually increasing diesel production and shipments. Trafigura and Gunvor buy 10ppm at Tuapse, market participants say.
