Asian refined products markets in focus as Strait of Hormuz uncertainty returns
Thursday, 23 July, 2026

Renewed tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz have refocused attention on supply security, freight costs and export flows across Asian refined products markets. While demand for gasoline, gasoil, jet fuel and naphtha remained broadly resilient, market participants are once again assessing the risk of disruptions to Middle Eastern exports and their impact on regional trade flows. In this episode of the Platts Oil Markets Podcast, Jonathan Nonis, Associate Editorial Director, is joined by the Asian oil product editorial team of Wanda Wang, Rachelle Teo and Joshua Ong to discuss how renewed geopolitical uncertainty is influencing gasoline, gasoil, jet fuel and naphtha markets in the region, the implications for supply, freight and arbitrage economics, and how buyers and sellers are adapting to a more volatile trading environment.
