POLICY AND ECONOMIC REPORT
               OIL & GAS MARKET

               The Singapore gasoil crack spread eased with higher Chinese exports leading to higher gasoil availability
               in Singapore. Additionally, weaker demand from Europe amid a tight arbitrage, a weak cross-regional price
               spread and stronger freight rates further contributed to weaker Asian gasoil margins. The Singapore gasoil
               crack spread against Dubai averaged $14.26/b, down by $1.23, m-o-m, and $8.17, y-o-y.
