SINGAPORE: Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil exporter, has cut the volume of crude it will supply to at least three buyers in Asia by 10%-30% for June, three sources with knowledge of the matter said on Thursday.
The cuts were made against volumes that the buyers had nominated for June-loading supplies, the refining sources told Reuters.
Saudi Aramco declined to comment.
The move came after Saudi Arabia announced it would voluntarily deepen oil output cuts by additional 1 million barrels per day (bpd) from June to an output level of 7.492 million bpd, the lowest in almost two decades.
