Black Sea CPC Blend daily oil exports set at 1.7 mln bpd for April, sources say
MOSCOW, March 19 (Reuters) - Oil exports via the Caspian Pipeline Consortium pipeline have been set at 1.7 million barrels per day, or around 6.5 million metric tons, for April, in line with the preliminary March plan, three sources familiar with the plan told Reuters.
On a daily basis, oil supplies from Kazakhstan's oilfields to the pipeline were set to be unchanged from March, according to Reuters calculations. April is one day shorter than March.
Kazakhstan has pledged to cut oil output to comply with its OPEC+ target, but is struggling to convince U.S. and European oil companies that operate giant oil fields in the country.
Sources told Reuters previously that March CPC Blend oil loading continued in line with the plan despite expectations of a decline.
Damage from recent drone strikes that were thought to affect oil exports via the CPC pipeline also didn't lead to a decline in loadings.
The pipeline, which carries more than 1% of daily global supply, stretches more than 1,500 km (939 miles) and is a main route for Kazakh oil exports.

Indonesia trade surplus seen widening to $2.53 billion in May: Reuters poll
JAKARTA, June 30 (Reuters) - Indonesia's trade surplus in May is expected to widen to $2.53 billion as growth of imports is expected to drop from a double-digit rise in the previous month, while exports continued to rise, a Reuters poll showed on Monday. Analysts in the poll estimated the rise in imports for May at 0.9%, which would be the weakest growth in four months from February. Imports was up 21.84% in April. Growth of exports was expected at 0.4%, lower than the 5.76% recorded in April. Southeast Asia's biggest economy has been enjoying monthly trade surpluses since mid-2020, mainly supported by a commodity boom, but it has been shrinking gradually amid weaker global demand. The poll's surplus for May was lower than the estimate from Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati at $4.9 billion of trade surplus, which would be the country's biggest monthly surplus in more than two years. On Tuesday, the statistics bureau will also announce Indonesia's consumer price index data for the June period as well as foreign arrivals data in May.
