IEA Warns Diesel Supply Shortages May Persist Into 2027 Amid Global Disruptions
The International Energy Agency (IEA) warns that global diesel supply shortages could continue into 2027 due to disruptions from the Iran conflict and attacks on Russian refineries. Diesel refining margins reached record highs amid constrained production and high demand, impacting economic costs worldwide. While some recovery in refinery operations and exports from the U.S. and China is expected, it may not fully offset the supply deficit. High diesel prices are raising costs for industries and consumers, with consumption declining but not enough to balance reduced supply.
