Event summary

China has significantly increased its crude oil inventories since April, largely due to high imports and a struggling economy. However, with anticipated export cuts from Russia and Saudi Arabia targeting China's large stockpiles, and nascent signs of economic recovery hinting at increased demand, crude inventory in China is expected to fall in H2 2023. This could lead to tighter market conditions in Q4, especially if stimulus measures further boost demand.
