Enjoy our weekly poll of Brent flat price direction on the summary page!

Dear readers, we are sure you would like to know the overall feeling for the market direction for next week when a large segment of the oil industry gathers in London for the annual energy shindig. We were mightily curious as well and we asked a pool of industry researchers, traders and consultants about their views on market direction. The results are as follows.

The Officials publish outright values, spreads, cracks and boxes for the main energy commodities traded in the marketplace. The published values are determined independently and on a fair market basis by our team of dedicated professionals.

We invite you to read our reports, which are published twice a day, reflecting closing values at 16:30 Singapore time (SGT) and at 16:30 London time (GMT/BST). For any comments, please reach out to us through the emails provided in the signed documents.
