The carrying capacity of oil tankers that docked at Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia’s biggest crude-loading port, shrank 9.5 percent last week, according to ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg.
Vessels with a combined capacity of 8.6 million deadweight tons arrived at the facility in the week to Dec. 31, compared with 9.6 million a week earlier. The ships would be able to haul about 63 million barrels of crude in total, assuming a conversion factor of 7.33 barrels a ton. Japan will be the largest recipient, followed by the U.S.
