Fuel oil stocks rise in Singapore


It is the first time since January that inventories have remained below 18 million barrels for three consecutive weeks.



Singapore's onshore stocks of residues rose for the first time in three weeks in the seven days up to Wednesday, August 29, according to data released by International Enterprise (IE) Singapore - an agency operating under the Ministry of Trade and Industry.

Despite the increase, the latest inventory data means that it is the first time that stock levels have remained below 18 million barrels for three consecutive weeks since January.

Please find below a table of Singapore's onshore stocks of residues up to Wednesday, August 29.
