July 15, 2026

Oil Markets

Oil prices registered limited gains despite renewed attacks, indicating that traders were balancing geopolitical risk against inventory movements and expectations of partial supply stabilisation.

Diesel, jet fuel and fuel oil may react differently from crude depending on regional refinery availability, stock cover and import dependence.
