Bad weather disrupted oil exports from Kuwait

Kuwait halts all oil exports due to bad weather

KUWAIT, February 12, 2015

Bad weather has disrupted oil exports from Kuwait forcing it to halt both its crude and oil products exports, a spokesman for state-run Kuwait National Petroleum Co (KNPC) told Reuters.
 
 
The suspension will remain until further notice when the weather conditions improve, spokesman Khalid Al Asousi said.
 
The Gulf Opec member produces around 3 million barrels of crude per day. It has three refineries, Shuaiba, Mina Abdullah and Mina al-Ahmadi, with a total refining capacity of around 930,000 bpd.--Reuters
