Brent crude oil prices declined USD 2.4/bbl vs. the previous month, to USD 67.2/bbl, due to OPEC+ quota increases. In July, OPEC production hit its highest level, again, since November 2023. Our benchmark margin fell by USD 1.7/bbl in August, to USD 12.6 /bbl, but is still very high. Most petrochemicals margins weakened further.

Brent crude oil prices were flat vs. the previous month, at USD 69.6/bbl, after disruption fears eased. A subsequent OPEC+ decision has made little difference at the start of August. Our benchmark margin increased by USD 1.3/bbl in July, to USD 14.3/bbl, a significant increase, which takes it to the highest level since February 2024. Once again, the less said about petrochemicals margins, the better, in our view.
