Positive Developments for West African Crude Supply

Read in 1 minutes

In light of multiple positive developments in West African crude oil supply over recent months which Petro-Logistics has reported in various Quick Alerts, we thought it worthwhile to summarize them in a single place. The key developments are:

  • Niger exported its first crude oil cargo in May via Benin, the new heavy sweet Meleck grade.
  • Senegal exported its first crude oil cargo in July, the new medium sour Sangomar grade.
  • Nigeria launched its first new grade of 2024 with extra light Utapate.
