Average quarterly fuel oil and Brent crude oil prices• Average price of Brent crude oil in 2019 was64.1 $/bbl (-7.6 $/bbl, -10.6%).
- In the beginning of 2019 crude oil price decreased evenmore due to 2018 year end higher inventories, slowingeconomic growth and low tide in the stock markets.
- Increase in Q2 2019 was driven by the easing of the tradewar between the US and China.
- In the second half of 2019 crude oil price dropped due togrowing US oil inventories.
• Average price of fuel oil (1% Sulphur content) in 2019 was341.9 €/t (+9.0 €/t, +2.7%).
- Fuel oil increase was driven by the regulations of theInternational Maritime Organization (IMO) that imposes atighter cap on the Sulphur content of marine fuels as from2020. IMO regulations will most likely continue to supportEuropean fuel oil market in 2020.
