Report summary
This update incorporates all of the price forecasts, crude differentials and refining margins through to end-2024 on a regional level. Global refining margins have crashed to 14-month lows in recent weeks as the supportive factors underpinning global diesel cracks have been priced out of the market. Our global refining composite margin now sits just US$0.3/bbl above the historic five-year average (excluding 2022) and is US$18/bbl lower than those witnessed at the end of April 2022. Gross refining margins for simpler refining configurations in both Asia and Europe are now borderline negative. This supports a downward revision to global crude runs in Q2 2023 and Q3 2023.
