For Crude oil market situation in Q2/2022, Dubai crude oil price was higher compared with the previous quarter and the same period of last year.

The sanctions on Russia, a major exporter of petroleum and crude oil in the world, by the European Union resulted in tight market supply, while the market demand was increased. However, Russia is in the process of rerouting oil and petroleum exports towards BRICS countries such as Brazil, India, China, and South Africa resulting in the average Dubai crude oil price in Q2/2022 stood at 108.05 USD per barrel and closed at 111.70 USD per barrel at the end of the period, increased from 97.61 USD per barrel at Q1/2022.
For petroleum products spread over Dubai crude oil price in Q2/2022, petroleum products were supported by the sanctions on Russia which is a major exporter of petroleum and crude oil in the world, by the European Union resulting in tight market supply. Also, market demand was increased due to the lowering trend of COVID-19 infections and the re-opening of cities in many countries. The average Diesel over Dubai crude oil spread increased from Q1/2022 and Q2/2021 to 43.11 USD per barrel. While Average Jet over Dubai crude oil spread increased from Q1/2022 and Q2/2021 to 39.16 USD per barrel.
