Russia plans to ship 17 cargoes of East Siberia-Pacific Ocean crude, or ESPO, from the Pacific port of Kozmino in February, according to a final loading program obtained by Bloomberg News.
Kozmino, in the country’s Far East, will load 1.7 million metric tons of ESPO blend in 100,000 ton lots, or 401,968 barrels a day, one cargo less than planned for January. Two of the cargoes will be transported to the port via railroad tankers and the remainder through the second phase of the ESPO pipeline, which opened Dec. 25.
