The sanctions have prompted Chinese state oil majors to suspend Russian oil purchases in the short term and refiners in India are expected to sharply cut their Russian crude imports. The market is in a wait and see mode for signs of how big the impact will be to Russia\u2019s flows to India, while the impact to China\u2019s refiners is expected to be muted given its diversified crude sources and crude stocks. The crude market traded to a low of $61.21 in overnight trading before it bounced higher and breached its previous high. The market posted a high of $62.59 early in the morning and settled in a sideways trading range. The December WTI contract traded in negative territory ahead of the close and settled down 29 cents at $61.50, while the December Brent contract settled down 5 cents at $65.94. The product markets ended the session in mixed territory, with the heating oil market settling up just 1 point at $2.4031 and the RB market settling down 42 points at $1.9227.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Technical Analysis<\/strong>:&nbsp; The crude market, which has seen a shift in concerns of oversupply to undersupply, is seen trending sideways as the market awaits to see impact of the sanctions imposed on Russia\u2019s Lukoil and Rosneft as Indian and Chinese refiners cut their Russian imports. The market will also focus on a meeting between U.S. President Trump and China\u2019s President Xi Jinping next week as the leaders will work to defuse trade tensions. The market is seen finding support at $61.21, $60.06, $59.64, $59.28, $58.49, $57.73 and $57.34. Meanwhile, resistance is seen at $62.59, $62.80, $64.86 and $65.77.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fundamental News<\/strong>:&nbsp; Bloomberg is reporting that Chinese state oil companies including Sinopec have canceled some of their purchases of Russian seaborne crude oil in the wake of U.S. and the EU imposing additional sanctions on Rosneft and Lukoil. Ship tracking service Kpler has estimated that state owned Chinese buyers account for more than 400,000 b\/d of Russian seaborne shipments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reliance Industries said it will abide by Western sanctions against Russia while it maintains its relationship with current oil suppliers. Reliance has a long term deal to buy 500,000 bpd of crude from Russia\u2019s Rosneft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kremlin spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said Russia is analyzing the latest Western sanctions and will act according to its interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bakers Hughes reported that U.S. energy firms this week added oil and natural gas rigs for a second consecutive week for the first time since September. The oil and gas rig count increased by two to 550 in the week ending October 24<sup>th<\/sup>, its highest level since June. Baker Hughes said oil rigs increased by two to 420 this week, while gas rigs held steady at 121.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marathon Petroleum is restarting a 140,000 bpd fluidic catalytic cracking unit and 60,000 bpd ultracracker hydrocracking unit at its 631,000 bpd Galveston Bay refinery in Texas City, Texas following a malfunction on October 16<sup>th<\/sup>. Marathon aims to complete the restart of both units over the weekend. Marathon plans to complete repairs to the fire-damaged 64,000 bpd residual hydrotreater at the Galveston Bay refinery in mid-November, a month later than planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BP\u2019s 440,000 bpd refinery in Whiting, Indiana resumed operations after an external power outage prompted a temporary evacuation at the plant. The outage was caused by a disruption to electrical service that occurred outside of the facility this morning.
