Even as independent Chinese refiners have reduced the intake of Iranian crude amid low refining margins, China has continued to import near-record levels of Iranian oil this year as a new demand center emerged in the northeast of the country, Reuters reported on Friday, quoting trading sources and tanker-tracking firms.
The world’s top crude oil importer is Iran’s key export market, and it looks like the soaring imports into Dalian have compensated for lower purchases by independent refiners in the Shandong province. Earlier this year, China’s independent refiners delayed purchases of crude from Iran for February as the Islamic Republic is now demanding higher prices and upfront payments before loading the cargoes, trading sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.
