Kuwait Petroleum Corp. is offering a tender of 4 million barrels of oil — two very large crude carriers worth — to Asian refiners, Kuwait's first such tender since Israeli-U.S. strikes on Iran began in February, Bloomberg reported on June 9. It follows tenders concluded in recent days by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. of more than 14 million barrels — seven VLCCs worth — of crude grades originating from inside the Strait of Hormuz.
