Japan joins the EU in cutting the price cap on purchases of Russian oil to $47.60 per barrel, in a move effective Friday and aimed at punishing Russia over the war in Ukraine, yet unlikely to affect any Japanese purchases.  Japan lowered the price cap from the $60 per barrel imposed by the G7 years ago, to $47.60 a barrel. Japan is also imposing fresh export sanctions on Russian firms and additional asset freezes, as part of its efforts to help the international push to end the war in Ukraine, chief cabinet secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi said…

Oil traders got whiplash today. Prices sank in early trading on oversupply jitters, only to rip higher by late morning as Russia once again stole the show. WTI was last at $63.79, up 2.28%, with Brent climbing 2.40% to $67.96. Natural gas was quieter, nudging up 0.27%. The surge came hours after a very different mood set the tone; concerns over swelling inventories and sluggish demand had pushed crude lower this morning, feeding the familiar narrative of too much oil chasing too few buyers. But markets quickly turned. Reports of fresh risks to…

As of Thursday’s close, light crude oil futures are trading slightly higher for the week at $62.27, up $0.40 or +0.65%. Despite the modest gain, market sentiment remains fragile as traders continue to prioritize fundamentals over geopolitics. Rising OPEC+ output, swelling U.S. inventories, and sluggish demand have kept a lid on upside momentum, even as tensions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe briefly supported prices. OPEC+ Production Hike Raises Oversupply Concerns Traders spent the week digesting the impact of OPEC+’s recent…

Politics, Geopolitics & Conflict An Israeli strike on Hamas targets in Doha, Qatar, this week, resounded rather loudly. Several Hamas members were killed in the strike during a meeting on a ceasefire proposal. Doha called it a violation of sovereignty; Netanyahu warned of further action unless Hamas leaders are expelled. Washington has used a few tough words, but is avoiding directly censuring Israel. Qatar’s hosting of Hamas has always been tolerated by its neighbors as part of Doha’s broader opportunism. The strike shatters the…

The expectation, going back to late 2019, was that the Turkey-Libya maritime MoU would eventually be locked in as Libyan law. Tripoli’s Government of National Accord signed it under Turkish protection, and the assumption was that the House of Representatives would, sooner or later, ratify it. That would have given Ankara a clear legal corridor across the eastern Mediterranean, cutting straight through Greek and Cypriot claims, and would have cemented Turkey’s hand in any future offshore licensing. On paper, the deal would have redrawn…

Rising costs and uncertain regulatory and demand picture have made low-emission hydrogen projects more challenging and clean hydrogen production by 2030 could be a quarter lower than expected at this time last year, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Friday.  The low-emission hydrogen uptake is not yet meeting expectations set by industry and governments in recent years, the agency said in its annual Global Hydrogen Review published today.  High costs, demand and regulatory uncertainty, and slow infrastructure development continue…

China plans to have its battery storage capacity more than double to 180 gigawatts (GW) by 2027 in a new plan aimed at attracting $35.1 billion (250 billion Chinese yuan), the authorities said on Friday.    The massive deployment of the so-called new energy capacity—to differentiate from pumped-hydro storage—is part of a new work plan issued by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the National Energy Administration (NEA) for the period between 2025 and 2027. China, which is the world’s top battery…
