A shipping agent told Reuters Oman's Sur export terminal, which handles 10 million tonnes per year of liquefied natural gas exports had been closed because of the storm and the Mina al Fahal oil terminal, that ships all Oman's 650,000 barrels per day of oil exports, was likely to shut soon.

Does anybody know what is the nature of the oil likely to be lost to the market if the Mina al Fahal terminal suffers severe damage? ie light/heavy, sweet/sour? Is this premium oil that will be sorely missed?
