*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Algeria's state-owned oil company Sonatrach has agreed to buy the Augusta refinery in Italy from Esso Italiana, a subsidiary of ExxonMobil. The move helps support Exxon's wider strategy to transition to a more capital efficient model. For Sonatrach, the deal will enable the firm to process domestic Algerian crude to help alleviate the country's oil product deficit. Our North West Europe Brent and Med Urals FCC gross refining margins strengthened in April but remain at the bottom of the seasonal range. Fuels marketing margins continued to be squeezed as crude prices rise.
