Tanker market report dated 1 March 2019

The US product export market has been transformed over the past decade. Exports of clean petroleum products (CPP) averaged 2.5 million b/d last year, up from just 0.8 million b/d in 2008. Rising trade has been underpinned by rapid growth in US crude production and refiners’ access to cheaper crude feedstock. Refining margins in the US Gulf have generally been stronger in recent years, compared to those seen in other regional markets.

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