* Angola will export 33 crude oil cargoes in June,
according to preliminary export programmes seen by traders, the
same number as was planned for May.
* At least 3 cargoes of May loading crude remained unsold,
in one of the swifter trading months since the pandemic began as
Chinese buying rises and demand there is set to surge.
* Traders continued to await any potential impact to
production a day after Exxon declared force majeure over its
operations in Nigeria.
* Exxon is the operator of Qua Iboe, one of Nigeria's larger
crude streams, along with much smaller streams Erha, Yoho and
Usan.
* It was not yet clear whether export activities had been
affected or whether the labour issue at the centre of the
problem would persist.
* Offer prices were not markedly affected by the force
majeure, traders said, with Qua Iboe still offered at well above
dated Brent plus $2, traders said.
