Join us to discuss the recovery of Asian refining in a post-Middle East conflict era, covering regional/global demand dynamics in conjunction with crude oil supply availability from both OPEC and non-OPEC sources. We will present the lessons learned on the significance of asset competitiveness, the evolution of future product trade flows and government responses to strengthening energy resilience, all of which could drive structural changes to the future of refining in Asia.
The key themes to be explored include:
- Outlook for oil demand growth in China, India and SE Asia
- Crude oil supply recovery – Strait of Hormuz flows, OPEC behaviour and future expectations for UAE and Iran
- Refinery competitiveness – characteristics of the region’s most resilient sites and impact on performance
- Asian refined product crack spreads, inter-regional trade flows - changes due to the Middle East conflict
- Energy resilience – key signposts that could signal structural changes to the future of refining in Asia.
