MOSCOW, July 23 (Reuters) - Black Sea CPC Blend oil
exports via the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) pipeline
system are set to fall to about 4.9 million metric tons in
August from the 5.4 million planned for July, two sources
familiar with the plan said on Tuesday.
On a daily basis CPC Blend oil exports will decline by 9.3%
in August from July plan, Reuters calculations showed.
Chevron ( CVX )-led Tengizchevroil plans maintenance on its giant
Tengiz oil field next month, which will lead to lower output and
a drop in supplies to the CPC system.
TCO is the largest oil exporter via the CPC pipeline system.
CPC does not comment on export plans via its system.
Chevron ( CVX ) holds a 50% stake in TCO, Exxon Mobil ( XOM ) owns
25%, Kazakh state firm Kazmunaigas holds 20% and 5%
belongs to Russia's Lukoil.
