OIL PRODUCTS
Singapore’s middle distillate inventories are swelling in 2024, signalling oversupply in the region, pressing Asian refining margins.
- Singapore Enterprise data showed middle distillate inventories at their highest level since July 2021 on Thursday while gasoil refining profits in Asia have slipped to the lowest in a year at $14/bbl according to Bloomberg Fair Value data.
- Middle-distillate inventories across five global oil hubs, covering the US, Europe, Japan, Singapore and the Middle Eastern emirate of Fujairah, are signaling bearishness, consultancy FGE said in a note on Thursday - growing by 3.4 million barrels m/m.
- FGE said these stockpiles typically draw by that amount at this time of year.
