Refining Margins & Crude Arbitrage

**Overview**

The Refining Margins & Crude Arbitrage dataset provides crude refining margin information for relevant crude grades in seven key refining centers around the world. The dataset also includes arbitrage calculation capability (~1,500 constructions available) between the available refining margins, enabling users to compare the profitability of refining different crude grades through a representative refinery by location and configuration.

This dataset includes:

- Coverage of key refining centers: U.S. Gulf Coast, U.S. Midwest, U.S. Atlantic Coast, U.S. West Coast, Northwest Europe, Mediterranean, and Singapore

- Daily, monthly, and yearly reporting frequency with 10 years of history, updated on a rolling basis

- Monthly and annual margin forecast data is available for selected margins

**Use cases**

- Fundamental Analysis - Turns the construction of a complex arbitrage calculation into a simple exercise and allows for the decomposition of an arbitrage into its main drivers
- Market Analysis - Provides significant breadth to explore and evaluate trading opportunities and understand crude market dynamics for any region in the world
- Pricing Analysis - Compare the profitability of refining different crude grades through a representative refinery by location and configuration
- Quantitative Analysis - With the ability to integrate the Refining Margins & Crude Arbitrage data into your workflows and analytics, customers will be able to model key fundamental and quantitative relationships
