Overview
Cabinda crude oil is produced in Angola. It is loaded from the Chevron-operated Malongo Terminal, which can accommodate Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) loading. Nemba also loads at Malongo, and combined cargoes of Cabinda and Nemba on VLCC’s are possible. The typical cargo size is 950 thousand barrels, but alternate cargo sizes can be arranged with advance planning. The minimum cargo size is 600 thousand barrels. Typically, cargoes are sold with pricing based off Brent (Dated) quotes with a density escalator/de-escalator. The production rate of the contributing fields is approximately 270 thousand barrels per day. Chevron has a 39.2% interest in the concession.
