The Crude Report: APAC series: Singapore slate change
Singapore slate change leaves WTI available for other markets
In this episode, Adam McCarthy and Fabian Ng dive into a major feedstock shift at ExxonMobil’s Jurong refinery in Singapore. The facility has stopped importing US WTI crude and is now running on heavier, sour grades from the Middle East. The discussion explores the reasons behind this strategic move, its impact on regional crude flows, and what it means for WTI demand across Asia.
