???? 據原油新聞2021年4月6日休斯敦報道，美國初創企業麥克斯中游公司（Max Midstream）創始人兼總裁托德·愛德華茲4月6日在一次采訪中表示，該公司計劃在5月初將其第一批原油貨物運往西北歐，屆時該公司將在德克薩斯州建立一個新的原油出口中心。

????愛德華茲表示，麥克斯中游公司將在4月底從其位于卡爾霍恩港的新原油出口終端向德克薩斯州的亞瑟港發送一批測試貨物，然后鷹福特等級原油將在5月初開始出口。

????麥克斯中游公司的總體目標是在休斯敦和科珀斯克里斯蒂之間建立一個原油出口中心，那里現有的船舶運輸很少，卡爾霍恩港可以主要把重心放在向歐洲運輸原油上，而規模更大的競爭對手則將大部分原油運往亞洲。麥克斯中游公司最近在日內瓦開設了一個貿易辦事處。

????愛德華茲說，“這很令人興奮，我們已經取得了很多成就。我們預計5月的第一周將向西北歐洲出口第一批德州原油。”

????消息人士說，在麥哲倫東休斯敦終端，有少量的鷹福特原油(API度為45)以每桶對WTI折扣50美分的價格出售。消息人士稱，供應量最高可達50萬桶，由于草案限制，這些鷹福特原油將裝上巴拿馬型油輪。

????Max Midstream to start Texas crude exports in May

????Startup Max Midstream plans to put a new Texas crude export hub on the map in early-May when it ships its first cargo that is bound for northwestern Europe, founder and President Todd Edwards said in an interview.

????Max will send a test shipment in late-April from its new crude export terminal at the Port of Calhoun to Port Arthur, Texas, and then exports of Eagle Ford-grade crude oil will begin in May, said Edwards.

????The overall goal is establishing an export hub -- between Houston and Corpus Christi -- where there is little existing ship traffic and the Port of Calhoun can focus primarily on crude shipments to Europe, while larger competitors send most of their oil to Asia. Max recently opened a Geneva-based trading office.

????"It's exciting," Edwards said. "We've accomplished a lot. We expect our first export to Northwest Europe in the first week of May."

????A small cargo of Eagle Ford crude with an API of 45 degrees loading at Port Calhoun was heard offered at a 50 cents/b discount to WTI at the Magellan East Houston terminal. The offer was for up to 500,000 barrels and will load on Panamax-sized tanker due to draft restrictions, sources said.
