Recap<\/u>:<\/strong> The global oil markets remained on the defensive for the third consecutive day today as news reports swirled that Iran could soon see oil sanction relief. The Iranian president Thursday confirmed that the negotiations between the U.S and other world powers and Iran were on the verge of being completed. The Iranian president noted that the main issues such as oil sanctions, petrochemical sanctions, shipping sanctions, insurance and banking issues “have been wrapped up” and just some minor issues were being negotiated, but a final deal could be completed next week. This news helped to send WTI prices to their lowest level since April 26th.<\/p>\n

T<\/u>echnical Analysis<\/u>: <\/strong>One should note that today saw the July WTI contract not only trade below the 50 day moving average for the second consecutive day, but settle below this moving average for the first time since April 12th. In the products markets, while heating oil futures values are far from challenging this moving average, in RBOB, the June contract today came within 30 points of reaching this key moving average, and has not traded below it since April 26th, nor settled below it since last November. As a result we would keep a close eye on both these contract markets tomorrow to see if they provide a clearer warning sign of the potential for a short term technical sell off.<\/p>\n

Fundamental News<\/u>: <\/strong>Colonial Pipeline froze nominations to move fuel on six upcoming cycles on Line 22 from Greensboro, North Carolina to Selma and Apex.<\/p>\n

Valero has applied its Jones Act waiver it received last week due to the Colonial Pipeline outage on the tanker Nave Titan to ship ultra-low sulfur diesel from its St. Charles, Louisiana refinery to New York. The Panama-flagged ship loaded 325,000 barrels of ultra-low sulfur diesel on May 11th.<\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs equity research expects the Brent-WTI differentials to remain tighter relative to recent history.  It forecast Brent-WTI differentials at $3\/$4\/barrel in 2022\/2023 as U.S. production expectations have declined due to COVID-19 impacts.  It sees U.S. production returning to pre-COVID levels in 2022.<\/p>\n

Iran’s President, Hassan Rouhani, said the main issues in reviving the 2015 nuclear deal including the removal of sanctions on his country’s oil, shipping, insurance and banking sectors have been resolved and a broad framework of an agreement is in place.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's biofuel blending mandates for this year and next are likely to be in line with those of 2020 as the agency accounts for weaker fuel demand since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. That would spare the U.S. refining industry the added costs associated with the usual annual expansion in renewable volume obligations under the Renewable Fuel Standard, at the expense of biofuel producers and the corn industry which depend on regular increases to grow their businesses.<\/p>\n

Two sources from the OPEC+ group said OPEC+ compliance with oil production cuts in April reached 113%, down from March's level of 115%.<\/p>\n

Kpler estimated that oil exports from the ten OPEC members increased by 300,000 bpd to 17 million bpd so far in May. Exports from the OPEC+ group fell by 200,000 bpd to 23.2 million bpd.<\/p>\n

OPEC stated that an IEA report suggesting that investors should not fund new oil projects to cut emissions could lead to oil-price volatility if it is acted on. <\/p>\n
