Middle East Crude-Dubai benchmark eases; two Upper Zakum deliveries emerge
SINGAPORE, Aug 26 (Reuters) -Middle East crude benchmark Dubai retreated after hitting a month's high last week, while two more Upper Zakum cargo deliveries emerged on Monday.
However, IFAD Murban's premium to Dubai quotes continued to extend its climb, edging up to $1.65 a barrel on Monday.
Asian demand for light sour grades such as Murban has been firm in the month amid a wide Brent-Dubai spread, which makes Middle Eastern oil more economically attractive versus Brent-linked grades from other regions.
Based on crude oil brokers, Brent's premium to Dubai crude for October was pegged at about $2.35 a barrel on Monday, widening from the previous session.

Gunvor will receive one October-loading Upper Zakum crude cargo from P66, while Vitol will receive one October-loading Upper Zakum crude cargo from Trafigura.
