Tuesday September 20, 2016
Prices were a mixed bag today as the market turns on every whisper regarding the potential for an output freeze.
The slight push given to WTI was the expectation that the main unit of the Colonial pipeline will come back online after being shut due to a leak found over a week ago.
The market is expecting a build when inventory figures are released tomorrow.
Bunker prices were stable in the primary ports.
