TENDER-Surgutneftegaz awards Glencore with up to 2.65 mln T of diesel from Primorsk- trade
MOSCOW, May 20 (Reuters) - Russian oil producer Surgutneftegaz has sold to Gelncore up to 2.65 million tonnes of ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) via export tender for loading in July-December 2016 from the Baltic port of Primorsk, traders said on Friday.
According to industry sources, the ULSD originating from the Kirishi refinery was sold at a discount of around $10 per tonne to Surgut's pricing formula, but it couldn't be directly confirmed, as buyers and sellers do not comment on their deals as a rule.
