00 Brent blend production runs approximately 500,000 barrels a day. Most is refined in Northwest Europe, but significant volumes move to the U.S. Gulf and East Coasts and to the Mediterranean. Brent is shipped from Sullom Voe in the Shetland Islands. The producing companies trade most of the volume on a spot basis with virtually no formal term contracts. 02 br

00 To facilitate efficient, liquid, and cost-effective trading of Brent crude and the Brent/light, sweet crude futures spread, the New York Mercantile Exchange will provide a Brent crude oil futures contract. The contract will trade in the open outcry crude oil futures trading ring on the floor of the Exchange and after-hours on the NYMEX ACCESS® electronic trading system. 02 br
