POLICY AND ECONOMIC REPORT
OIL & GAS MARKET
The Singapore gasoil crack spread eased further as the global bullish sentiment in gasoil markets continued
to diminish in May. Despite recent regulatory measures that may keep refinery runs somewhat suppressed
in China and India, firm product supplies in the rest of Asia are providing partial relief from the previous
regional shortage. The Singapore gasoil crack spread against Dubai averaged $46.00/b, down $27.03/b, m-
o-m, but up $30.83/b, y-o-y.
