Following Saudi price cuts, Abu Dhabi state oil firm ADNOC cut the premium on
December-loading Murban crude by more than 60% to $4/bbl above the Dubai
benchmark, traders said. Official selling prices for other major UAE grades were
also lowered versus November. The Murban reduction exceeds ARAMCO’s cut
announced last week. Middle East crude exports are recovering toward pre-war
levels as flows resume via tankers through the Strait of Hormuz and pipelines
that bypass it, a development weighing on global oil prices.
