Overview

As the most consumed refined product in Europe, diesel is a fundamental source of road fuel. But without sufficient local refining capacity to cover demand, the region is dependent on imports of this critical product.

Since the imposition of sanctions on Russia, previously a major source for European markets, diesel trade flows into the region have transformed. Diesel is now imported from further afield into large ports and on vessels up to three times bigger. It is then redistributed to the rest of the region, creating an export flow from the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) hubs.

With a transformed market, you need price assessments that are transparent, and represent current market conditions and trade flows.

Our assessments provide full transparency by capturing value for long range 2 (LR2) cargoes ranging 90,000 to 100,000 into ARA and West Med.
