Shipping Fuel Oil Shortage Looms as Refiners Prioritize Diesel

Refiners are prioritizing diesel over fuel oil due to war-driven tightness, squeezing shipping fuel supply. Energy Aspects projects a 218,000 bpd shortage in Q3 2026, the first since 2025, with Asia hit hardest. This marks a significant escalation from the 6,000 bpd shortfall in 2025, driven by protracted supply disruptions.
