Oil Markets Russia’s impact on Americas naphtha and refined products
Americas refined products markets are adjusting to altered trade flows more than a year after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Refined products that were once supplied to Brazil from the US Gulf Coast have now been replaced by Russian barrels, while other markets in Latin America are still being wary of touching Russian product out of fear of repercussions from the US. Oversupply has caused naphtha in particular to deal with volatility and low export demand.
S&P Global Commodity Insights’ Maria Jimenez Moya, Latin America refined products price reporter, sits down with Sarah Hernandez, managing editor for Americas light ends pricing, to discuss the changes arising in North and Latin American markets of naphtha and refined products as a result of Russian inflows.
