Prices are based on a free-on-board (FOB) basis from the Port of Ras Tanura.
Aramco’s prices are used as a benchmark for other Asian exporters since the company is the biggest exporter of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in Asia.
The oil giant sells propane and butane to local petrochemical companies, with a 20% discount compared to FOB Ras Tanura prices, based on the pricing rate applied since early 2017.
