Iraq is heard maintaining an overall steady supply to Asian term-contract buyers in June, although some traders said the supply of Basra Heavy could be slightly lower comparing to previous months. June-loading Basra Heavy is traded at $0.8 to $1 a barrel over the OSP level. In tenders, Qatar Energy has issued tenders to sell five al-Shaheen crude for July loading. It also sought to sell up to two cargoes each of Qatar Marine and Qatar Land crude. The tenders will close on May 16 and is valid until May 17. For Asian sweet oil, Malaysia's Kimanis crude oil exports in July will fall by one cargo from the previous month to a total of five cargoes, industry sources said on Monday.
OPEC+ Iraq does not expect OPEC+ to make further cuts to oil output at its next meeting in June, its oil minister Hayan Abdel-Ghani said, in the first indication from an OPEC minister about a potential decision as oil prices slide.
