Show Notes
European fuel oil sulfur spreads surged in October as events further afield spurred opposing price movements for low- and high-sulfur fuel grades. A sudden easing of US oil and gas sanctions on Venezuela has sent high sulfur markets tumbling, while a mysterious shift in exports from Kuwait hit low sulfur markets in the Middle East and Asia, all against the backdrop of a gentle wind-down to an unusual European summer. In this episode of the Platts Oil Markets podcast, Francesco Di Salvo is joined by Managing Editor for fuel oil Rowan Staden-Coats.
