Market Overview: Distillates
The European market has exploded with the front spread trading at 15 USD at some point on decent demand and less available Arb cargoes. Needless to say that storage for distillates is getting less and less attractive. Freight into the hinterland is still very worrisome and barge movement from Frankfurt upwards is impossible. In Switzerland supply now comes from strategic storage and pipelines.
In the US, the backwardation is less pronounced but the market is strong as well and the spread gasoline/heating oil is getting wider in favour of the latter. Although inventories of U.S. heating oil are lower this year than last year, they are still within the range of the five-year average.
Distillate inventories fell to low levels earlier in 2018 because of continued growth in distillate demand, driven by strong global industrial and economic activity. Certainly a cold snap could get this market higher. However, temperatures in the Midwest—the region with the most households that use heating oil for heating—are expected to be 3% warmer than last winter.
Market Overview: Fuel Oil
The European 3.5% fuel spread continues to be strong. The front spread has been trading above 10 for a while now and the spread Nov18-Dec19 is more than 110 USD backwardated. Product availability is a major issue at the moment: stocks are very low and re-supply troublesome.
The E/W is very high and pulls barrels from the ARA region and the Baltics straight to Singapore. The barge market is experiencing congestion and delays. Fuel oil stocks are getting lower globally, stocks in Fujairah for instance dropped 16.1% week on week. Stocks in the US are still on the very low side and well below the 5-year average.
