- According to traders, amid disruptions in Middle Eastern oil supply, the spot premium for Azerbaijan BTC light crude oil has surged to over $10 above prompt Brent.
- This premium level reflects a significant intensification of competition in the market for alternative, non-Middle Eastern crude, with buyers willing to pay higher costs for supply chain security.
- The combination of restricted transport through the Strait of Hormuz and increased risks in the Red Sea has caused a tension in the crude spot market far exceeding what is indicated by futures prices.
- Attention will be focused on whether there will be a temporary easing of the situation in the Middle East, as well as whether high premiums will further transmit to other crude grades and refined oil product markets.
