OPEC Predicts Continued Weak Refining Margins in 2010
Refining margins, or the profit from turning oil into fuels such as gasoline and diesel, will remain weak in 2010 as demand stays subdued and new capacity starts, according to the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
“The product market in 2010 is expected to remain weak due to the excessive overhang in product inventories and slow recovery in industrial sector demand, especially middle distillates,” OPEC said today in a monthly report.
