???? 據能源經濟4月13日消息稱，幾位貿易消息人士周一表示，最大石油出口國沙特阿拉伯將滿足大多數亞洲客戶對5月裝運原油的需求，此前一些買家因煉油廠維護和價格上漲而要求減少產量。

????路透社上周報道說，由于全球第三大石油進口國和消費國印度與產油國之間的緊張關系，印度4家國有煉油商5月份向沙特阿拉伯的石油需求比正常情況減少了36%。

????消息人士稱，該生產商滿足了印度四家煉油廠降低產量的要求，但將向至少一家印度買家供應的原油種類從阿拉伯重質調整為阿拉伯輕質原油。

????兩名知情人士表示，其中一家日本煉油商要求減產10%，這在合同允許的調整限度內，而另一家由于煉油廠維護原因，將不會增產任何沙特原油。

????本月早些時候，沙特提高了銷往亞洲的所有等級原油的價格。5月阿拉伯輕質原油官方售價升至1.8美元/桶，高于阿曼/迪拜的平均水平，為2020年2月以來的最高水平。

????Saudi Arabia meets May crude supply for most Asian buyers

????Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia will meet most Asian customers' requirements for May-loading crude after some buyers had asked for lower volumes partly because of refinery maintenance and higher prices, several trade sources said on Monday.

????Reuters reported last week that four state Indian refiners had requested 36 per cent less oil from Saudi Arabia in May than normal amid tensions between India, the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer, and the producer.

????The producer met the four Indian refiners' demands for lower volumes, but adjusted the types of crude it supplies to at least one of the Indian buyers to Arab Light from Arab Heavy, the sources said.

????One of the Japanese refiners requested a 10 per cent cut, which is within a permissible adjustment limit in the contract, while another won't be lifting any Saudi crude because of refinery maintenance, two of the sources with knowledge of the matter said.

????Saudi earlier this month raised prices for all grades it sells to Asia. The May OSP for flagship Arab Light crude rose to $1.8 a barrel above the Oman/Dubai average, the highest since February 2020.
