据石油新闻2021年2月24日伦敦报道，洲际交易所（ICE）2月24日表示，阿布扎比国家石油公司（ADNOC）原油出口的官方销售价格（OSP）将基于即将在6月份启动的ICE 穆尔班原油期货合约。
ADNOC的旗舰产品穆尔班原油的OSP将直接反映期货合同，而上扎库姆原油、达斯原油和乌姆鲁鲁原油的价格将与期货合同规定的穆尔班原油价格存在差异。
ICE计划在3月29日成立一家总部位于阿布扎比的交易所，穆尔班原油期货合约以及相关的现金结算衍生品和大宗商品间价差将在此交易，具体事宜有待监管部门批准。
ICE表示，穆尔班原油合同将提前两个月进行实物交付，使6月成为首个合同月，4月底到期。
ICE阿布扎比期货总裁Jamal Oulhadj表示，“这些新合同将对能源市场带来难以置信的好处，首次带来对冲穆尔班原油价格风险的能力。”“穆尔班原油被炼油厂广泛使用，并因其稳定的质量和稳定的产量，以及其在世界各地的大量买家而被全球认可，因此，我们相信，穆尔班原油期货将在全球原油定价中发挥着重要作用。”

ADNOC to base OSPs for crude exports on Murban futures contract from June
Official selling prices for Abu Dhabi National Oil Co.'s crude exports will be based on the soon-to-be-launched ICE Murban Futures Contract from June, the Intercontinental Exchange said Feb. 24.
The OSP for ADNOC's flagship Murban crude will directly reflect the futures contract, while the Upper Zakum, Das and Umm Lulu grades will be priced at a differential to the Murban price as set by the futures contract.
ICE plans to launch an Abu Dhabi-based exchange, on which the Murban futures contract and related cash-settled derivatives and inter-commodity spreads will trade, on March 29, subject to regulatory approval.
The Murban contract will go to physical delivery two months ahead, making June the first contract month at launch with expiry at the end of April, ICE said.
"These new contracts will be incredibly beneficial to the energy market, bringing for the first time the ability to hedge Murban price risk," said Jamal Oulhadj, president of ICE Futures Abu Dhabi. "Murban is ... widely used by refineries, and globally recognized for its consistent quality and stable production volumes, as well as its large number of buyers around the world, and as such we believe Murban futures have an important role to play in global crude pricing."
