Azure database export - Premium not supported

I need to export a database but when I try this action I have problems about 'Configure required settings - Storage (Premium not supported) - Please select bappac'.

Therefore when I try to configure at the 'Storage accounts', no storage accouns is found.

My setting for 'scale for DTU' is Basic.

Premium storage is only for disks (vhd's), which are page blobs. Azure Database backup creates a .bacpac in a directly-accessible block blob. So, you cannot do a database backup to a Premium storage account.
