Traders say Aramco has informally told several Asian refiners they will soon be able to load cargoes at Yanbu on the Red Sea. At least three refiners received informal assurances from Aramco executives about shipments but have not been given formal notices or a specific timetable. Yanbu loadings were almost entirely halted after the east‑west pipeline was shut on Sept. 10 following drone attacks launched from Iraq; the pipeline had been delivering about 4 mln b/d to the port. A source last week said Saudi Arabia was seeking to restore roughly half the pipeline’s capacity within days, but Aramco has not issued an update.
