Why Bunker Prices Aren’t Dropping — Even as Oil Sinks Below $65
Brent prices even lower than a month ago
Brent prices are some $4/bbl lower than their peak at end April, and in the interim we have seen another dive back down towards $60/bbl. Its like the crude price chart reflects a ‘friendship rating’ between the US and China, with Brent $15/bbl lower than when Trump came to power. Instead of prices around $80/bbl at the start of the year, we are now generally trading in the $60-65/bbl range, and have been for almost two months.
