OIL
Saudi Aramco may cut the Arab Light OSP to Asia by $0.70/bbl in January to a premium of $1.00/bbl to the Oman-Dubai benchmark, according to a Bloomberg survey of seven trader and refiners.
- The survey showed four respondents expect a decline between $0.7/bbl and $0.9/bbl while the others suggest a smaller cut.
- The OSP was cut by $0.50/bbl for December to a premium of $1.70/bbl to the Oman-Dubai benchmark.
- OSPs are typically released within the first five days of the month.
- Market expectation has been growing that Saudi and the wider OPEC+ group will delay planned output increased early next year.
