OIL

Vortexa figures show that both Saudi and the rest of OPEC+ have boosted crude exports in the first half of November which has weighed on markets after significant supply cuts in prior months.

  • OPEC+ exports (excluding Iran and Venezuela) have almost hit 20mbd so far in November, putting them well above the August low of 18.6mbd and at the upper range for levels seen during this year.
  • Vortexa showed Saudi crude exports breaching 6.5mn bpd in H1 November – a strong rebound from 5.4mn bpd in August.
  • Clean product exports out of Saudi meanwhile have slipped significantly.
  • “The elevated levels of Saudi Arabia and other OPEC+ members’ crude exports, compared to August levels, add further weight to the bearish sentiment on crude markets.” Vortexa said.
