Kpler Market Briefing Series | Liquids

Navigating Crude Flows, Refining Shifts & Market Power in a Fragmenting World

Global oil markets are entering a defining phase. OPEC policy decisions, sanctions enforcement, refinery expansions, and shifting trade routes are reshaping the Pacific Basin and beyond.

Join Kpler’s leading analysts this April for an in-depth briefing on the structural forces redefining crude and product markets — and what they mean for pricing, trade flows, and competitive positioning in 2026.

‍

Global Crude & Price Outlook‍

• Will OPEC discipline hold?
• How fast is non-OPEC supply growing?
• Where are sanctioned Russian and Iranian barrels really flowing?
• How will new Asian refining capacity and China’s stockpiling strategy shape demand?

Asia’s Expanding Market Power

• Are Asian crackers and refiners under pressure — or gaining leverage?
• Do US West Coast refinery closures permanently elevate Asia’s role?
• Will EU sanctions enforcement keep pulling Indian barrels west?
