Saudi Arabia's crude oil exports to China are set to fall in September, slipping from a more than two-year high in August after the world's largest exporter raised prices, several trade sources said on Monday.
State oil firm Saudi Aramco will ship about 43 million barrels to China in September, or 1.43 million barrels per day (bpd), a tally of allocations to Chinese refiners showed. That is down from 1.65 million bpd allocated in August.
Companies that planned to reduce Saudi crude liftings in September include Asia's top refiner Sinopec and its Fujian Refinery joint venture with Saudi Aramco, the sources said.
PetroChina and Shenghong Petrochemical will also slightly reduce volumes in September from August, they added.

Yesterday, the Israeli prime minister clarified that his security Cabinet authorized attacking “central camps,” which the UN says are housing 500,000 displaced people, and Muwasi, in addition to Gaza City, which was announced last week. He defended the action as necessary to “finish the job.” Also yesterday, five Al Jazeera journalists were killed in an Israeli strike near Gaza City’s Al-Shifa Hospital, including reporters Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqeh and three cameramen, who were in a tent for journalists near the hospital’s main gate when it was struck. The Israel Defense Forces said it had targeted al-Sharif, whom it described as “the head of a terrorist cell in Hamas,” allegations that al-Sharif and Al Jazeera previously denied.
