Med crude-Urals diffs unchanged, exports set to rise slightly in Oct
MOSCOW, Oct 1 (Reuters) -Urals crude oil differentials were unchanged on Tuesday, while oil exports from Russian western ports were set to rise in October, sources said.
Russia will increase oil exports via its western ports to 2.2 million barrels per day (bpd) in October, up slightly from September, as domestic refineries will increase runs only marginally despite coming out of the peak maintenance season, two trade sources said on Tuesday.
On a daily basis oil loadings from Russian ports of Primorsk, Ust-Luga and Novorossiisk in October will rise by some 3% from September, Reuters calculations showed.
