Mar-15 16:43

Diesel crack spreads have seen a late surge as European close nears, with the gasoil backwardation also widening. Supply risks from planned and unplanned refinery outages are offsetting weaker demand and signs of recovery in US run rates.

  • US 321 crack up 0.6$/bbl at 32.94$/bbl
  • US gasoline crack up 0.4$/bbl at 32.6$/bbl
  • US ULSD crack up 1.1$/bbl at 33.61$/bbl
  • Gasoil APR 24 up 1.2% at 840.5$/mt
  • Gasoline cracks have continued their rise, up nearly 15% since the start of the week. Signs of growing demand , tighter supply, and the approach of the US summer driving season all provide upside
  • Russian oil refining capacity halted by drone attacks during Q1 2024 amounts to around 7% of the total capacity at 4.6m metric tons (370.5kb/d), according to Reuters calculations.
  • TotalEnergies had a temporary malfunction on a petchem unit in its Gonfreville-Normandy complex according to a community notice.
