▪️ China oil imports from SA ~$45bn pa, ~1.75 mbpd
▪️ What can SA do with CNY received
1. Pay in CNY for Chinese imports/services
2. Diversify FX Reserves into CNY away from USD
2a. Invest back into China onshore say CGBs

+ve for CNY internationalization
[SAMA FXReserves $420bn]
▪️ (Oil in CNY) = (Oil in USD) x (USDCNY FX)
- Oil in CNY=>Shanghai International Energy Exchange, "Shanghai Oil" #SCPA
- Oil in USD=>say DME Dubai Oman Crude Oil #OQD

If Shanghai Oil in CNY is just an FX conversion of Dubai Oil in USD then Oil is still really priced in USD
