The Officials: Kennie needed a break!

26 February 2025: 16:30 GMT

We’ve seen pancakes with bigger bumps than flat price today. Following yesterday’s collapse, Brent seemed to want a day to reset and allow some meetings to go ahead unperturbed by major market crashes or bounces. Maybe it went too far and actually ended the European session exactly where it was yesterday, at $72.83/bbl!

The North Sea window was almost as quiet as Dubai today. Only Mercuria rolled in to offer. Hey, if you buy a full VLCC’s worth of Midland in one window, you’ve got to offload it somehow… The offer of a 10-14 March at Dated +$1 didn’t attract any interest from lethargic buyers busy planning their next IE week outings.
