Asia to Get Full Saudi Volumes

摘要

Saudi Aramco has notified Asian term buyers they will receive their full contracted January volumes, as they did for December (IOD Nov.10,p5). The decision to supply the full amount was no surprise. Refiners, who have complained about having to deal with excess term supplies while refining throughput is low, are likely to continue exercising the minus- 10 percent operational tolerance limit allowed in their contracts with the Saudi oil giant.
