the sanction on russian oil is only beginning in Dec 22' and full restriction by Feb 23'....i think its a long cold war...just like Iran..
it may take ages before Russian are tamed down...
during this time, even just one refinery going off-line for some reason will spike up refinery margin tremendously....

Europe Gas Jumps as Latest Russian Cut Plan Stokes Supply Fears
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-08-22/europe-gas-jumps-as-supply-fears-return-with-planned-pipe-works
European gas prices surged after Moscow’s move to shut a major pipeline ramped up fears of a prolonged supply halt, leaving Germany once again guessing as to how much Russian fuel it can count on this winter.
Benchmark futures rose as much as 16%, also driving up electricity prices to fresh records. The key Nord Stream pipeline will stop for three days of maintenance on Aug. 31, again raising concerns that the link won’t return to service as planned after the works. Europe has been on tenterhooks about shipments through the link for weeks, with flows resuming only at very low levels after it was shut for works last month.

Actual profit depends on the margin secured during hedging via Futures.
Gross profit depends on timing of real 'exchange' of goods & money.
Difference between the two, is hedging gain or loss.

Posted by Sslee > Aug 22, 2022 12:47 PM | Report Abuse
Now I understand how Petronm do a commodity swap as hedging.
Example: Today Petronm just buy physical oil 1 million barrel at USD 80 per barrel.
Since the 1 million barrel on oil will reach PD then into storange tank and process into finish products in 30 days time hence Petronm make a commodity swap with counterparty at USD 80 per barrel for 600K barrel maturity 30 days later.
At the end of 30 days the average 30 days oil market price is now USD90 per barrel hence Petronm need to pay counterrparty 600K x USD(90-80) = USD 6 million.
For this commodity swap Pertonm make a derivatives lose of USD 6 million but that lose will actually be recovered by stock gain because the USD 80 per barrel 30 day ago purchased is now worth more (USD 90) in inventories gain.
Similarly if the average 30 days oil market price drop below USD 80 what gain from commodity swap will be losses in value of inventories.

From below, we can deduce the following for Petron Corp refinery:

Gasoline: 26.4 x 2 - 17.8 = USD 35/brl

Jet fuel: 27.7 x 2 - 16.2 = USD 39/brl

The significance of the Shipping Insurance ban
..............................................
A critical part of the sanctions package (Article 3n) concerns shipping insurance.
After a six-month phase in period, EU companies cannot provide “technical assistance, brokering services or financing or financial assistance, related to the transport, including through ship-to-ship transfers, to third countries of crude oil or petroleum products” from Russia. The United Kingdom is expected to follow suit.
Cutting off shipping insurance and reinsurance from the European Union and United Kingdom — the heart of the maritime insurance industry:
— will hinder Russia’s ability to redirect crude oil and petroleum products to other regions.
........
I see other regions (like India / China) if at all provide their own maritime insurance to enable importing of russian oil, would rather buy russian crude oil at a discount and make hefty profit at their refinery than buying refined products from russia to compete with their own refined products.
Its also highly possible that EU will restrict Import of refined products from countries like India & China that import oil from russia.
This effectively means refinery that produce 960,000 bpd of Diesel in russia will be going offline.
All refineries outside russia will be the king makers then.

The below answers why EU is importing more Diesel presently.
https://energypost.eu/eus-latest-sanctions-on-russian-oil-what-are-they-and-will-it-work/
Q2: Can Europe cope without Russian oil?
A2: Global crude flows are changing quickly. In the past few months, Europe has started to import more oil from the United States, West Africa, and the Middle East. European refiners seeking substitutes for Urals blend could turn to crude oil streams from Norway, Nigeria, Iraq, and the United States, although spot cargoes of many crude oil streams are limited in a tight market. Replacing lost volumes from Russia is no small task, but refiners frequently adjust to changing supply conditions.
The drop in Russian exports in the past two months has been lower than expected. Even as more oil and gas majors and commodity traders have stopped lifting Russian cargoes, the country has been able to sell more volumes to Asia, particularly India.
Because there is a phase-in period before the sanctions take place, it is possible that Russian oil exports to Europe will increase in the next six to eight months before the trade becomes illegal.

THE ABOVE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION I HAVE EVER SHARED HERE - kindly go through the above and ponder deep
some summary:
...........
- Big difference between Complex & Simple refinery margin
- Simple refinery produces Fuel Oil at negative crack and low margin of Gasoline will close their production. i,e they will act as a leverage to Complex refinery.
- HY Diesel production capacity
- Complex refinery like HY high yields of Diesel at 46% .
- Diesel product is having very high margins.
- Where to see Diesel margin, i.e its crack spread
- Unlike gasoline consumers who has a choice to postpone their travel or work from home, diesel consumers do not have a choice as they are consumed by heavy machinery & transportation equipment essential for manufacturing of goods & transportation.
- Imminent Natural gas shortage in EU & winter will further increase diesel demand before the sanction takes full effect
- Russian sanction has barely taken effect (their exports had only reduced 5% so far).
- 12 refinery equivalent production of Diesel is not replaceable in 6 months.

THE 'NEXT HIT' :
https://www.spglobal.com/commodityinsights/en/market-insights/latest-news/petrochemicals/072722-refinery-news-roundup-some-maintenance-continues-in-russia
As of June 30, complex refining margins increased 160% from February 22 to Rub21,000/mt ($382/mt), while simple refining margins quadrupled, reaching Rb5,000/mt over the same period, Petromarket told S&P Global Commodity Insights.
Finding alternative outlets for fuel oil and the switch to bitumen production in the summer months has also provided a relief to less complex refineries whose storages were flooded with fuel oil as international buyers avoided taking it, according to market sources. However, the situation might reverse again as the road repair and construction season ends with the advent of cold temperatures, and refineries increase fuel oil production.
The situation appeared to improve in May as the bitumen production season started, helping to reduce the residual fuel oil yield, according to a recent report by S&P Global.
However S&P Global analysts expect the "NEXT HIT" to come when 700,000 b/d of diesel that typically flows to Europe will have to be rerouted.
The EU ban on Russian oil imports takes effect in early 2023.
..................
HY produces, 10.7 million barrels per qtr
= 118,800 bpd
at 46% yield, you have
= 55,000 bpd Diesel
So, how many HY like refinery you need to fill the gap of 700,000 bpd of Diesel?
= 700,000 bpd / 55,000 bpd
= 12 refinery
............
Remember most refinery in Europe is simple type that has yield less than 30% Diesel. The above is truly conservative. Such shortage can never be filled unless Russia finds alternative buyer for their Diesel to countries like India which would then need to export to EU - something that seems very difficult due to the way its sanctioned..
Lets look forward for the 'next hit' where EU basically loses equivalent 12 refinery while we admire the current beauty of Diesel crack

@Zhuge, just to be 100% correct, i used 210k bpd as effective sales volume. The actual name plate capacity of the vietnam new refinery is around 250k bpd. In any case, USD 5 billion or in the worst case USD 3 billion as a market cap for HY considering its debt, should be a very fair valuation of 40 yr old refinery.

Russia’s Gazprom abruptly imposes three-day maintenance on Nord Stream 1

Russian producer Gazprom on 19 August announced three days of maintenance on Nord Stream 1 starting on 31 August, curtailing all gas flows on the key pipeline to Europe.
“The prospect of Gazprom shutting down Nord Stream 1 for three days is only going to spook the market. Gas prices jumped at the very end of the trading day as the maintenance was announced and could easily rise further on Monday as buyers assess whether they really believe the pipe will return to service as stated by the Russian supplier,” said Tomas Marzec-Manser, Head of Gas Analytics at ICIS.
Marzec-Manser added that the three day duration would likely be taken “with a massive pinch of salt” by the market, as concerns would likely persist on whether the pipeline even returns to service, on time or at all.

EU sixth package of sanctions against Russia
https://www.shiplawlog.com/2022/06/13/eu-sixth-package-of-sanctions-against-russia/
The package of sanctions E.U. has prohibits the import (or purchase or transfer, directly or indirectly) of Russian crude oil and certain petroleum products into member states, as well as the seaborne delivery of such goods to third countries. Any insurance, reinsurance, technical assistance, brokering services, financing, financial assistance or any other related services, direct or indirect, are also prohibited. A wind-down period of six to eight months applies to existing contracts and “one-off” spot contracts, provided certain reporting requirements are met.
Again, it is prohibited to provide insurance or reinsurance for maritime transport of crude oil and refined petroleum products to third countries. European Union operators and entities may not provide any new insurance or finance contracts for the transport, in particular through maritime routes, of Russian oil to third countries. The Council has included a wind-down period of six months (until 5 December 2022) for closing out any existing contracts executed before 4 June 2022.

What is the impact of the ban on oil, on Russia and the EU?
The impact of the oil ban on Russia will be significant. Around half of its total oil exports go to the EU. In 2021, the EU imported €71 billion worth of crude oil (€48 billion) and refined oil products (€23 billion) from Russia.
Losing this leading lucrative market will have a significant structural effect on Russia, whose budget relies substantially on these oil revenues.

“There is information that the Russian occupation forces are planning to shut down the power blocks and disconnect them from the power supply lines to the Ukrainian power system in the near future,” the Ukrainian statement said.
“The Russian military is currently looking for fuel suppliers for the diesel generators, which are supposed to turn on after the power units are shut down in the absence of an external power supply for the nuclear fuel cooling systems,” it said.
The vast nuclear power plant, Europe’s largest, was captured by Russian forces in March, but it is still staffed by Ukrainian technicians, though only two of its six reactors are working at full capacity.
Turning the plant off would pile new pressure on Ukrainian supplies, particularly in the south. Ukraine is already bracing for its most difficult winter since independence and preparing for a possible energy shortage.

However, the IEA said the EU embargo on Russian crude and product imports, which comes into full effect in February 2023, would result in “further declines” as about 1m barrels a day of products and 1.3m barrels a day of crude “would have to find new homes”.
Meanwhile, with natural gas and electricity prices soaring, “incentivising gas-to-oil switching in some countries”, the IEA has raised its estimates for 2022 global oil demand growth by 380,000 barrels a day, to 2.1m barrels a day.
The global heatwave has also seen an increased oil burn in power generation, especially in Europe and the Middle East but also across Asia.
The report added: “EU members have committed to reducing their demand for gas by 15% from August 2022 to March 2023. We estimate that this will increase oil consumption by roughly 300,000 barrels a day for the next six quarters.”

and the avg of the remaining products matching Mogas 95 as a minimum
Revised refining margin calculation:
= (0.46 x 42.34 ) + (0.35 x 15.91) + (0.07 x 34.10) + (0.12 x 15.91)
= 19.46 + 5.56 + 2.38 + 1.90
= US $ 29.3 / brl
I really wish all of HY debt is cleared soon..

Germans brace for two ‘stressful’ winters amid gas shortage
https://www.thevibes.com/articles/business/68936/germans-brace-for-two-stressful-winters-amid-gas-shortage
“It’s not just about one winter but rather at least two. And the second winter could be even harder,” he said.
“We’ve got to save a lot of gas for at least another year. To put it clearly: it’s going to be at least two stressful winters.”
He said shortages in the cold months of 2022-23 were “probable” in some regions.
“The shortfalls will probably be temporary at first and then could stop or return repeatedly,” Mueller cautioned, meaning that gas might have to be transported to stricken regions of the country.
Germany is heavily dependent on Russian gas and has seen deliveries drop sharply amid tensions over the Ukraine war.

@sslee, last time when Petron Corp delivered 5.6 billion peso in Q1 2017, the split to PetronM was as per the following summary:

If refinery margins are high, will that mean PetronM profit will be lesser? Not sure how to conclude for PetronM

@Zhuge, i think going forward the hedging loss will become minimal and can even turn into hedging gain as expansion of refining margin peaked in June 22'.
This effectively means the gross profit we calculate above using the crack spread is what will be reported actually.
In terms of taxation, i have no idea whether the rate will be higher than current.
I realized a lot of useful information related to derivatives or hedging on Q&A session with PetronM. I think the person who had asked these questions are very much from i3 :)
Refer Questions 15 till 21
