MRPL sold 40,000 tonnes of 0.5 percent diesel for May 14-16 loading from New Mangalore to BP at premiums of 70 cents a barrel to Middle East quotes on a free-on-board (FOB) basis.
This was higher compared to 60 cents a barrel premium it had fetched for a parcel sold to Trafigura previously for April 26-28 loading.
The state-owned refiner had also sold 36,000 tonnes of jet fuel to Mercuria at a discount of $1.48 a barrel to Singapore quotes on a FOB basis.
