The metamorphosis of global refining will likely resume in 2023, after a pause in 2022 and changing the shape of crude and product flows.

Global refinery throughput “dipped” to 80.4 million b/d in October “on peak seasonal maintenance and major industrial action in France,” the International Energy Agency said in its monthly report Nov.

Strike action that started late September over pay is continuing at TotalEnergies French refineries, according to local media reports.

Indian oil companies are increasingly focusing on renewables.

Russian refineries that buy crude on the spot market are expected to run at high rates in the remaining period of August due to strong domestic demand and an increased flow of product exports.

European oil companies reported higher throughput at their refineries in Q2, backed by good demand and strong margins.

China’s crude throughput likely fell in July, weighed on by maintenance at state owned refineries and amid uneven oil product demand recovery and limited exports.

Refiners in the Asia Pacific region have been raising runs and output, for the most part, although some have reduced processing as demand has been affected by high fuel prices.

Some refinery maintenance continues in Russia in July while the market is starting to prepare for the autumn turnarounds.

Refiners in Europe are taking decisions on new renewables projects.
