Traders: Aramco announces cancellation of LPG shipments from Ju'aymah port during February and March

- Traders said Saudi Aramco's Ju'aymah liquefied petroleum gas export terminal is expected to shut down for at least a month for maintenance, after a service disruption this week forced the cancellation of shipments through the end of March.

The prolonged service outage at Ju’aymah, one of the world’s largest liquefied petroleum gas export terminals, is expected to reduce the availability of propane and butane in Asia, as well as raise prices at a time when demand is soaring for heating, cooking and petrochemical fuels.
