US to sell 10 million barrels of sour crude from strategic petroleum reserve

The US will sell 10 million barrels of sour crude from its Strategic Petroleum Reserve with deliveries planned for October and November, the Department of Energy announced Wednesday.

In a notice of sale Wednesday, DOE said offers must be received by August 28. The 10 million barrels of sour crude will be sold from the SPR's Bryan Mound, West Hackberry, and Big Hill sites.

DOE said the delivery period for the sale goes from October 1 through November 30 and that early deliveries will not be available for this sale. The sale's minimum delivery lot sizes are 100,000 barrels for pipeline, 250,00 barrels for vessels, and 40,000 barrels for barges.

"It is the responsibility of the Offerors to ensure that terminal and pipeline availability is sufficient to accommodate delivery of all awarded crude oil volumes," DOE said in its notice.
