Nigeria’s oil exports will reach their highest in six months in November, led in part by an
increase in supply of the country’s four largest crude grades, according to loading programmes.

Total loadings of Nigerian crude will rise to 1.876 million barrels per day in November, from October’s 1.652 million bpd. November’s will be the largest loading programme since May
this year and is 17 percent higher than last November’s 1.598 million bpd export schedule. The export plan comprises 59 cargoes, unchanged from October and includes one cargo of Akpo condensate.

Exports of Forcados, Bonga, Bonny Light and Qua Iboe will rise to 822,967 bpd in November, from a planned 728,258 bpd in October. This will be the largest export programme for the four since June’s 873,000 bpd. The Agbami stream will add another cargo in November, while supply of the smaller grades will remain broadly unchanged.
