Will the pace of Hormuz exits hold sustainably? Have other global crude solvers already peaked? Strong Hormuz flow, extra Russian barrels and weak Chinese demand have suppressed crude. @NGCanalyst thinks that's peaking, and pricing could turn bullish from here. ▸ The future of Hormuz flow is still very much in doubt. ▸ China's interest in cheap AG crude is already picking up. ▸ US exports have peaked, SPR is release is due to slow.

16 mb sold in ADNOC's latest tender. Chinese teapots are buying again. Discounts now compete with Iranian and Russian barrels. Cargoes are also moving privately to USWC refineries, a fresh outlet the market can't absorb fast enough. ▸ Fifth ADNOC tender since June. Mostly Upper Zakum at Dub-4/5 $/bbl. ▸ Chinese teapots were missing from recent buyer lists. Now they're back. ▸ Watch Dubai contango and the Brent-Dubai EFS. They decide how fast the glut clears west.

Ukraine's drone campaign is accelerating. Every second night, new attacks on Russian fuel infrastructure, trucks, and supply lines feeding their military machine. For crude traders, sustained geopolitical supply pressure is becoming the baseline, not the exception. Why? @NGCanalyst.

100 episodes. Still here. Still making market calls. We hit more than 2,000 listeners on a single episode last month. For episode 100, we're breaking down a new disconnect: crude might already be at peak weakness while products are rallying on huge refining outages. Inside this episode: ▸ Can crude's collapse and product strength coexist much longer? ▸ Russia's refining crisis is set to continue and adds to a lack of global spare refining capacity that has developed. ▸ Will stock replenishment become the real market floor for crude?

Naphtha's record West-to-East arbitrage boom is reversing. The E/W has normalised, but will it last? Europe's strength is real but peaked, driven by gasoline blending demand and by strong PADD 1 imports. That's kept NWE firm. But the window may be closing. Red Sea and USGC flows into NWE that fuelled recent strength could be done. Asian cash diffs are recovering but still negative. Pro-nap looks too strong. Q3/Q4 balance points bearish as Gulf supply normalises. ▸ E/W normalised as record H1 2026 West-to-East arbitrage reverses. ▸ European strength is gasoline blending, not petchem cracking. ▸ Peak opportunity behind us; market rebalancing into Q3/Q4.

Crude's moment as the world's go-to "solver" is ending. US crude has been flexing when other flows tightened. But now, with max Iran flows, strong AG exports, and Russian availability flooding the market, there's less need for US barrels. Thing is, WTI arbs need to close with US stocks low, so what happens if Hormuz flow slows?

Ethane works as a petchem feedstock into China. Coal-to-olefins are freeing up naphtha for mogas. Cost advantage overcomes the logistics headache. Listen to @JuneGoh_Sparta full analysis: youtube.com/watch?is=yyccpSP… #oott #commoditytrading #petrochemicals

Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries are reshaping global diesel flows. Russian refinery runs are collapsing, cutting diesel exports sharply. This is pushing Singapore cracks higher and opening West-of-Suez arbitrage to Europe. But jet hasn't followed. Kerosene is lagging, leaving LA under pressure and opening East Asian arbs further westward. In his latest distillate deep dive, James Noel-Beswick, Head of Commodities, breaks down what matters: ▸ Russian diesel exports falling; AG/WCI ULSD LR2 arbs now pointing to Europe. ▸ Singapore diesel cracks staged dramatic recovery; August GO e/w at lowest 5% of 8-year range. ▸ Jet E/W widening; East Asian jet arbs opening into Europe, keeping LA premiums under pressure.

Hormuz opening is reshaping markets faster than traders expected. AG crude and products are flooding in, crushing spreads in most regions, but pockets of real tightness remain. This week we look at where the pressure is sharpest and where arbs are opening.

Paper TA arb gasoline spreads still look cheap, even with the Monroe Trainer fire and tight US inventories. RBOB: the Monroe Trainer fire on top of PADD 1 tightness drove paper TA arbs above 45 cpg. With demand firm, and net positioning broadly neutral, ex-RVO Jul and Aug paper TA arbs at -6 and -8.6 cpg look undervalued, and a potential non-renewal of the A1 waiver would push spreads higher still. ARA landed cargoes remain the most competitive barrel into LATAM and North America, while a tighter US basis protects domestic barrels by cutting exports, supporting the West of Suez market. Singapore: E/W spreads at record lows (-$14.40 Jul / -$12.60 Aug) look poised to gain as LATAM demand remains firm while AG and Chinese exports remain meagre. Net: the complex stays broadly constructive, with relative value favouring the TA arb and E/W.

VLCC, LR2 and MR freight segments reprice first on paper. The fleet takes longer to catch up, and that lag is where the market hasn't priced the risk. @SpartaFreight, our Freight Commodity Owner, breaks down which routes reprice first, where the fleet is sitting right now relative to where it needs to be, and the window between the paper move and the physical squeeze that the market hasn't priced yet. If you're trading or chartering anything that touches AG or USGC freight, this is built for you. Read the full report here: campaigns.spartacommodities.… #oott #freight #oiltrading #oilandgas

Hormuz reopening is flooding Asia with prompt crude. Asian refineries are so oversupplied they're pushing barrels to the US West Coast for the first time since 2018. ▸ Asian refineries already well supplied till August; Hormuz barrels push balances into overhang without China demand. ▸ UAE crude now being marketed to US West Coast and Hawaii; first ME oil there since 2018. ▸ Middle East prices collapsed and trading at discounts to Dubai benchmark as supply overwhelms Asia.

AG crude supply is crushing Brent physical but sustainable flow is yet to be seen. Long-trapped barrels from the Arabian Gulf are hitting just as Chinese demand stays weak. Spreads are struggling, WTI Afra arbs are closed into Europe. ▸ Temporary oversupply is pressuring crude physical and spreads, but until sustainable supply chains are proven, fundamentally we should be long. ▸ Chinese demand remains very subdued, which is the main elephant in the room in the Eastern market.
