Tanker market report dated 26 October 2018

India, along with China has long been revered as a key driver of world oil demand growth. However, higher crude prices and a weaker rupee have seen domestic fuel prices surge. Now, with sanctions imminent against one of India’s largest suppliers, consumers could see further price rises which may impact on their purchasing power. This begs the question; can the crude market really rely on India to drive demand over the coming years in a higher price environment?

The weekly tanker market report by Gibson Shipbrokers features an overview of the crude oil and oil product tanker market.
