  • European VGO loadings fall to 336,200 mt across 13 ships in week to Mar 18
    VGO loadings in Europe are increasingly being dominated by intra-European trade flows, according to traders, as the market continues to shun Russian-origin VGO. The reluctance to buy Russian-origin product has created a market with two product flows, said one European feedstock trader.
  • Japan utilities seek prompt LNG, fuel oil supplies on earthquake-led power outages: sources
    The incremental fuel demand came to light as some earthquake-hit power plants were already being restarted.
  • ARA fuel oil stocks down slightly on week at 1.032 mil mt: Insights Global
    Russia is the main supplier of fuel oil to Europe, accounting for 35 million mt in 2021, so supply disruptions from Russia are likely to have an impact on fuel oil prices.
  • BUNKERWORLD INDEX: Hesitancy over Russian clients, supply concerns contribute to volatility
    The war in Ukraine was expected to curb supply of low sulfur bunker fuel at Fujairah as economic sanctions on Russia impede imports of 0.5%S fuel oil feedstocks for the blending pool, local traders said.
  • REFINERY NEWS ROUNDUP: Asian refiners look at alternatives to Russian crude
    As Russian crude makes up around 3%-5% of major Asian economies' overall refinery feedstock imports, finding alternative sources wouldn't be too troublesome, Miyagawa said, indicating that light sweet WTI crude would be one of the top alternative options for regional end-users considering Asian refiners' extensive and well-established US crude trading network.
  • IEA proposes 2.7 mil b/d oil use 'restraints' to avert supply shock over Ukraine war
    The proposals include measures to reduce the use and fuel consumption of passenger cars, working-from-home up to three days a week, and less business air travel to quickly cut oil demand over the coming four months, the IEA said.
  • Pandemic restrictions slow crude discharging at northeast China port, impacting refiners
    The port in Liaoning province receives VLCCs to serve Norinco's Huajin Chemical refinery and the independent Panjin North Asphalt Fuel and Haoye Chemical refineries. The province has tightened movement restrictions and neighboring Jilin province has imposed lockdowns in a bid to curb a spike in omicron variant infections.
  • VLGC rates retreat as bunker prices ease, but volatility a concern
    The benchmark FOB Singapore marine fuel 0.5%S cargo assessments fell to $788.18/mt March 17, from $786.03 March 16. Outright prices of Singapore-delivered marine fuel 0.5%S skyrocketed to an all-time high of $1,027/mt March 9 since S&P Global Commodity Insights launched the assessment in July 2019. The outright prices were last assessed at $805/mt March 17.
  • European energy traders call for 'emergency' liquidity funds as Ukraine war rocks prices
    The region's energy traders require access to short-term liquidity provided by governments and central banks to "maintain the functioning of EU energy markets" as wholesale energy prices convulse in the turmoil of the Ukraine crisis, the European Federation of Energy Traders said in a letter dated March 8 seen by S&P Global Commodity Insights.
  • Platts to launch East-West forward curve assessments for Singapore 380 CST HSFO, Marine Fuel 0.5% from April 4

  • SINGAPORE DATA: Residue stocks edge up 1.5% to 23.4 mil barrels on lower exports
    Fuel oil exports dropped 50.8% to 262,964 mt in the week to March 16, the lowest since the week ended Jan. 26, the data showed.
  • V-Bunkers deliver bio-fuel blended VLSFO in Singapore
    Some of Singapore's licensed bunker suppliers have broached plans to penetrate the biofuel bunkering space but are likely to defer arrangements amid the recent rise and volatility in the prices of conventional bunker fuel, which has slowed demand, industry sources said.
