Reuters•yesterdayExclusive: How Iran fuel oil exports beat U.S. sanctions in tanker odyssey to Asia
The shipments were loaded onto tankers with documents showing the fuel oil was Iraqi. The transfers show at least some Iranian fuel oil is being traded despite the reimposition of sanctions in November 2018, as Washington seeks to pressure Iran into abandoning nuclear and missile programs. While the United States has granted eight countries temporary waivers allowing limited purchases of Iranian crude oil, these exemptions do not cover products refined from crude, including fuel oil, mainly used to power the engines of large ships.

Brazil's state-run oil giant Petróleo Brasileiro SA was also executing a part of its annual oil hedge last week, dealers and banking sources said. Canadian oil is priced against U.S. crude futures, and producers use a combination of the benchmark futures and other financial tools to protect against fluctuations in prices. Average U.S. crude prices for the rest of 2019 and 2020 hit their highest in four months, with 2019 prices reaching a high of $60.34 a barrel on Tuesday.

A committee of the most influential members in the 24-nation alliance of OPEC and non-OPEC countries met in the Azerbaijani capital, Baku, on Sunday and Monday and agreed to go beyond their pledged 1.2 million barrels a day of supply curbs in the coming months. The latest forecasts from supply-and-demand studies of the oil industry’s most-watched organizations—the International Energy Agency, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries itself—show that they will need to do just that. The three agencies are coming to a consensus view that the world will need around 30.5 million barrels a day from the OPEC countries on average in 2019.

The increases mean that by June, oil companies will be limited to 3.71 million bpd of production. Alberta mandated production cuts this year to ease congestion on export pipelines that resulted in crude getting bottlenecked in storage and the discount on Canadian heavy crude widening to record levels. "This temporary policy has been critical to reducing the oil price differential while we move ahead with our medium-term plan to ship more oil by rail and lead the long-term charge for new pipelines as we fight to get full value for the resources owned by all Albertans,” Premier Rachel Notley said in a statement.
