Asia Distillates-Market structure pares recent gains
SINGAPORE, Oct 3 (Reuters) -The market structure for the middle distillates complex pared back from its recent strength, with timespreads narrowing for prompt-month contracts amid sell-offs.
Backwardation for both 10ppm sulphur gasoil and jet fuel narrowed to below 30 cents for the balance-Oct/Nov contract, based on LSEG data at the Asia close.
Spot differentials were also pegged lower amid the weaker market structure, after several sessions of uptick.
Some trades emerged for prompt 10ppm sulphur gasoil while offers for late-October dipped. The spot differential GO10-SIN-DIF was pegged lower at a premium of 24 cents a barrel on Wednesday, after hitting a seven-month high on Tuesday.
Refining margins GO10SGCKMc1 closed lower at $12.55 a barrel, as crude prices continued to climb day-on-day.
Regrade JETREG10SGMc1 widened to a discount of 28 cents a barrel on Wednesday, according to LSEG data.
