West African gasoline supply in limbo after Belgian export ban
About this episode
The West African Gasoline market is about to undergo major transformations. Belgium has proposed new environmental measures to suspend low-quality motor fuel exports, following similar move by the Netherlands. Will consumers like Nigeria turn to alternative blending hubs, or resign themselves to higher prices at the pump?
In this episode of the Platts Oil Markets podcast, London-based downstream reporter Kelly Norways and gasoline editor Matthew Tracey-Cook join Joel Hanley to discuss the impacts of these new regulations and how the markets have reacted so far.
