Global product markets weekly: crude price drop helps refiners
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Crude prices fell sharply in the week commencing 16th July. The average dated Brent price was $3.90/bbl lower, the steepest weekly decline since October 2016. The weakness came from increasing supply and growing US crude stocks. Libyan exports continue to recover and production cuts by OPEC/non-OPEC countries were eased. The Brent-WTI differential narrowed despite weekly EIA figures showing a 6 million barrel stock build in the US. Brent values were undermined by the end of a Norwegian oil workers strike and increased Libyan output.
