This is the second consecutive increase in the value of Saudi oil sold in Asia, after Aramco raised OSPs for Asian buyers for April in March, following the extension of OPEC’s production cut agreement until the end of the first part of the year. The value of the country’s flagship product, Arab Light, rose to $0. 20 per barrel compared to the Oman/Dubai average for the month of April.

Now, the increase for May is $0. 30 a barrel, the high end of refining resource expectations voted via Reuters earlier this week.

A Bloomberg survey of investors and refiners predicted an increase of $0. 10 per barrel.
