SINGAPORE, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Japan's Inpex Corp 1605.T has sold a cargo of Australian Van Gogh crude at a premium of more than $13 a barrel to dated Brent via a spot tender, two trade sources said on Friday.
The 300,000-barrel cargo was offered to load Nov. 19-23.
The buyer was not immediately known.
Earlier this month a November-loading Van Gogh crude cargo traded at the same premium. Gogh and other Australian heavy sweet crudes have been selling at strong premiums over the past several months, supported by strong demand from traders who are buying for blending into marine fuels to meet new shipping rules on lower sulphur content set to take effect in January 2020.
