Link here. Data points:
- Saudi Arabia to reduce deliveries of crude oil to Europe and North America
- Asian refineries: so far largely spared
- Asia: in fact, three of the region's refiners said they were told they would receive the extra volumes they requested
- Saudi Arabia recently increased oil production to an all-time high of nearly 10.7 million bopd
- has since reduced production to 10.5 million bopd
- one year ago: 1.3 million bopd
- in the early days of the blog, analysts often stated that Saudi Arabia could/would produce 12 million bopd; I never accepted that; we now see that the all-time high was "nearly" 10.7 million bopd, not significantly different than 1.3 million bopd one year ago (remember previous postings that suggest hundreds of thousands of bopd "unaccounted" for)
- best way to track Saudi's comment regarding North American imports: US Saudi crude oil imports; has hardly changed
