The Brent–WTI wedge stretched to $12.879, rewriting delivered cost on SNSUC's seven re-export routes; the discharge port must be locked as an STS anchorage before the LC opens.

Brent at $104.489 and WTI at $91.719 leave a $12.77 spread that has held above $12 for four sessions. The widening stems from softer Cushing stocks and weaker US Gulf export differentials, hitting SNSUC's seven re-export grades unevenly.
