Japanese refiner and shipowner Eneos Holdings is “overwhelmingly active” in procuring spot crude oil.
The VLCC and VLGC owner said it is open to purchasing Canadian crude alongside US and South American barrels if the price is right.
Chief executive Tomohide Miyata told reporters in Tokyo: “As we have a higher-than-expected spot ratio [in our crude procurement], we could do Canadian crude oil, as it offers various grades, should it prove economical.”
