Report summary
French union strikes in May 2016 have directly affected the country's oil products supply chain with six refineries out of eight offline, oil depots blocked and the main ports' oil terminals inactive. If strikes continue, the impact could lead refinery margins in Europe returning to the highs of 2015.
