OIL
Kazakhstan raised crude and condensate output by 13% m/m in February to a record high of 2.12m b/d, Reuters reports.
- Excluding gas condensate, crude output jumped 15.5% m/m to 1.83m b/d, according to Reuters calculations.
- Record output comes following the ramp-up of the Tengiz oilfield. Production at the field rose to 904k b/d last month, from 640k b/d in January, Reuters reports.
- Kazakhstan has persistently exceeded its OPEC+ output quota of 1.468m b/d. The nation is on a compensation plan to make up for overproduction.
- Output has also increased despite a drone attack at a pumping station on the CPC. Kazakhstan said last month that oil supplies via the CPC were on schedule.
