ADNOC wants to export more Murban crude oil

It represents a production capacity of around 2 million b/d out of the company’s 4 million.
It is produced from 2,000 onshore wells.
ADNOC aims to export 1.437 million barrels per day (b/d) by November 2022.

But more than in December 2021 and its 1.205 million b/d.

This is 12% more than the November 2021 price of $73.41/b.
