OIL

Iran exported over 1.5mn bpd of crude/condensate in May, a 200kbd increase m-o-m and 400kbd above the 12-month average according to Vortexa.

  • May was the highest monthly volume since sanctions were imposed November 2018.
  • Iran’s crude exports are being driven by Chinese demand, 20 new tankers joining its fleet this year and onshore stock draws.
  • Iran’s onshore crude/condensate inventories declined to 107mb in May, a 140kbd stock draw since April according to Vortexa.
