Gasoil, gasoline markets key to VLSFO pricing: Integr8 Gasoil demand is expected to return to pre-coronavirus levels quicker than gasoline, but both are key factors for very low sulfur fuel oil prices in the medium term, as combined they make up over half of its ingredients, according to a webinar presented by hosted by Integr8 Oct. 7. Indonesia's Abadi LNG project expected to start operations in 2027: Energy minister Indonesia's Abadi LNG project is expected to start operations by 2027 as the country steps up measures to attract foreign investment in its oil and gas sector, its energy minister said in the run-up to the Japan Producer-Consumer Conference 2020. Lack of containers, high rates hurting Indian business as demand picks up: export body A lack of container availability in India is hurting the export sector and posing a "serious concern" over meeting delivery commitments to foreign buyers, the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) said Oct. 7.
