Deficitul mondial de motorină ar putea persista până în a doua jumătate a anului 2027, alimentând inflaţia şi afectând creşterea economică - AIE

The global diesel market may face pressure until mid-2027, with high prices potentially exacerbating inflation and slowing economic growth, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Conflicts in the Middle East and Russia have significantly reduced exports, while stock levels continue to decline despite strategic reserve interventions. The IEA warns that record diesel prices are impacting economic activity and consumer costs. Diesel is crucial for transportation, industry, and agriculture, leading to increased production and distribution costs. The IEA anticipates a partial recovery in refinery activity by the end of the year, but it won't fully offset the accumulated deficit in medium distillates. The agency is preparing for new strategic reserve releases to stabilize markets amid ongoing supply disruptions.
