Several informed sources said that the giant Saudi Aramco plans to supply full crude contract volumes loading in May to several North Asian buyers despite its pledge to cut output by 500,000 barrels per day, Reuters reported.

This comes after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the OPEC+, surprised markets last week by announcing an extra output cut of 1.16 million barrels per day (bpd) from May for the rest of the year.
