Prix des carburants : pourquoi les raffineries sont au cœur de la tempête
Plus que d'un problème pétrolier, la flambée des prix du carburant résulte de tensions sur les capacités mondiales de raffinage.
A rocky pandemic recovery, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and increasing social and consumer pressure to move away from Russian commodities have led to a spike in oil, natural gas, and even coal prices.
For a look at how commodities should be regulated and how policymakers think about energy supplies in a fractious geopolitical environment, host Jason Bordoff spoke with Javier Blas from Bloomberg News. He’s a leading energy columnist and commodities expert with a renowned career at top media outlets like the BBC and the Financial Times.
He’s also the author of a new book: “The World for Sale: Money, Power, and the Traders Who Barter the Earth’s Resources,” co-authored with senior Bloomberg News reporter Jack Farchy.
The pair have been on the show previously to discuss the book in detail, which you can listen to here. They also participated in a recent event with Maria Jelscu Dreyfus, CEO and Founder of Ardinall Investment Management which you can watch here.
In this discussion, Javier focuses on the implications of the current war for commodities markets and the global clean energy transition.

The Middle East crisis has increased demand for China's clean technologies.
As inventories run dry and the Iran war continues to disrupt transit routes, oil has surged back to more than $100 per barrel. Diesel fuel—the workhorse of the agricultural and trucking sectors—has now soared to historic highs, pushing U.S. exports to record levels.
By almost any measure, the world should be suffering a far more severe energy crisis.
