DME Oman linked contracts
On 5 December 2010, NYMEX launched six DME Oman-linked contracts, traded bilaterally and cleared through CME Clearport. These new DME Oman-linked contracts complement the OQD Futures contract and give market participants regulated and transparent Over-The-Counter (OTC) contracts. The contracts are:
- DME Oman Crude Oil Swap Futures (DOO)
- DME Oman Crude Oil BALMO Swap Futures (DOB)
- ICE Brent vs. DME Oman Crude Oil Swap Futures (DBO)
- DME Oman Crude Oil Average Price Option (DOA)
- Singapore MOGAS 92 Unleaded (Platts) vs. DME Oman Crude Oil Swap Futures (DNB)
- Singapore Gasoil (Platts) vs. DME Oman Crude Oil Swap Future (DZB)
The two main contracts which traded immediately were the DOO and the DOB with over 1.7 million barrels (270,000 m3) traded in the first week of their launch.
