Platts Ethanol & Oil Benchmark Briefings in APPEC – Singapore
8 & 9 Sep 2026
Had the opportunity to attend the Platts Ethanol Benchmark Briefing and Oil Benchmark Briefing, with insightful discussions on the evolving APAC energy and commodities landscape.
The ethanol session covered APAC feedstocks and fuels, regional trade flows, Platts MOC, and the development of Asia ethanol benchmarks, together with the latest Singapore MOGAS market dynamics.
The oil session provided a broader view across Middle East and Asia-Pacific crude markets, naphtha, LPG, gasoil, jet fuel, fuel oil, bunkers and bitumen, including evolving fundamentals, trade flows and regional price trends.
From a strategic investment perspective, one key takeaway is that market benchmarks and transparent price formation are becoming increasingly important as Asia’s physical commodity trade continues to evolve.
Understanding the interaction between pricing, physical flows, infrastructure and regional demand will remain critical for identifying opportunities across the APAC energy market.
