The self-imposed embargo of Russian oil is spreading to Kazakhstan crude, with three shipments canceled in the past 24 hours. The Wonder Vega, Free Spirit and Stealth Haralambos, all Marshall Islands-flagged vessels, were Black Sea-bound for the Port of Novorossiysk. S&P Global informed clients of the three canceled loadings, citing the war risk premium associated with the grade of oil. These latest cancellations led the Chevron-led consortium at Tengiz — Kazakhstan’s highest-producing oil field — to issue a statement that it was “monitoring developments.” Production is continuing, according to the consortium. Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates LLC, told American Shipper that Kazakhstan crude oil, which is the light sweet variety like Brent and WTI, is trading at a discount. The crude is currently being offered at a $9-per-barrel markdown to Brent.
