KUWAIT CITY, May 22: Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) has successfully renewed its contract to export 300,000 barrels per day to China, with a significant update reducing the payment period from 60 to 30 days. This contract with Unipec, Sinopec’s commercial arm, includes savings of 60 cents per barrel, totaling around $625 million.
