Russia’s ban on diesel and gasoline exports could last slightly over one month and may offer and upside for US refiners, according to TD Cowen’s equity research group.

  • "Russia announced an immediate ban on its 1.4MM bpd gasoline and diesel exports with no end date," it says in a research note. "We estimate it could take 34 days for storage capacity to fill, which could be the ban's duration."
  • "The ban should support cracks in an already tight market and provide upside to 4Q23 EPS revisions for US refiners,” the note added.
