Saudi Arabia, the world’s biggest crude exporter, raised all pricing for November oil sales to Asia as refining margins rose and the Kingdom’s state oil producer pulled out the stops to maintain supply after attacks briefly knocked out half its output in September 2019, reported Bloomberg.
Saudi Arabia experienced the worst-ever attack on its energy infrastructure when drones smashed into some of its biggest crude-processing facilities. The attacks at Abqaiq and Khurais in the Kingdom’s east caused Saudi Aramco to halt 5.7 million barrels a day of Light crude production.
The country has succeeded in raising output to 9.9 million barrels a day, said Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, the Saudi Energy Minister.
