The physical premium in Dubai continues to run up – just don’t look at the flat price – despite more OPEC
production, slow economic data and an improvement in Libya. It does not matter; longs are in control
of the premiums. Against the odds, Dubai opened strong at the start of September compared with last
month. The prompt weakness we saw in front spreads seems like a distant memory, with November Dubai
partials pricing at $1.38 over M1 swaps. Physical premiums rocketed to $2.05/bbl, the strongest since we
began collating data.
