Daily Bunker Fuel and Oil Report

Tuesday, 24 July 2012 | 12:07
A bunker fuel and oil report, detailing the day per day trading patterns and prices in the market.The report is prepared from OW Risk Management and covers all major bunker fuel oil markets around the world, including all major ports, ranging from Singapore to Rotterdam.

Market in Brief  
 
Yesterday Crude Oil plunged more than $3.0 on renewed worries for the Eurozone. Focus is particularly on Spain as its borrowing cost surged with speculations that it may require a greater bailout. Spain joined Italy in banning short selling in their equity market. The Euro came off against the US dollar to a record low which also pressured the US dollar denominated crude futures. The September WTI contracts closed at $88.14/bbl, down -$3.30 while the September Brent futures fell -$3.57 to close at $103.26/bbl. Today, we will see minor data from the US with only the Richmond Fed Manufacturing. A better market mover could be the Q2 US GDP on Friday. This morning, crude is trading slightly up.
 
 
  Fueloil Specifics  
 
The NWE fuel oil market prices fell sharply yesterday following weakening Brent. Delivered 380cst product lost app.$15/mt while cargo prices were even weaker posting more than $20/mt losses. Falling prices raised mixed sentiment in the area as ARA hub saw some increased demand while Hamburg remained muted. Rotterdam port reported tight LSFO avails, with suppliers fully booked until July 27. The Singapore fuel oil market prices erased last week’s gain, shedding more than -$22.0 during the morning Platts window. Market remained firm as cargo premium was seen around $3.5. The delivered bunker premiums were at app. $7.25 above cargo prices yesterday. This morning both markets are trading flat.
