Les entreprises de transport routier mexicaines ont entamé lundi une grève nationale illimitée pour protester contre l'insécurité sur les autoroutes, les vols de marchandises, l'extorsion et la hausse des coûts d'exploitation, avec des manifestations prévues dans les principaux centres de fret le long de la frontière entre le Mexique et les États-Unis. La grève, organisée par la National Chamber of Freight Transportation (CANACAR) et d'autres organisations de transporteurs, appelle à des manifestations à travers le Mexique, notamment à Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa, Monterrey, Tijuana et Mexico. Les p
Chattanooga – Cela fait peu de temps – moins d'un mois – que Jesse Elison s'est adressé à un événement du secteur et a abordé la question du nouveau système d'enregistrement en difficulté Motus. L'administrateur adjoint de la Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) s'est exprimé lundi lors du Broker Compliance Symposium de FreightWaves, l'une des deux sessions d'une journée qui servent de prélude au plus grand Future of Freight Festival qui débute ici mardi. La plus grande nouvelle de sa présentation n'était en réalité pas une nouvelle : après avoir déclaré à la National Motor Frei
Pendant des années, l'Occident a cherché une issue technologique aux terres rares. Les ingénieurs ont mis au point de nouvelles conceptions de moteurs, des chimies d'aimants alternatives et des matériaux qui réduisent, voire éliminent, le besoin de certains minéraux critiques. Chaque fois que la Chine renforce ses contrôles à l'exportation, ces efforts bénéficient d'un regain d'attention. Ils méritent d'être poursuivis. Mais ils ne répondent pas à la question que les fabricants doivent résoudre aujourd'hui. La capacité de production est devenue l'actif rare numéro un. Cette prise de conscience
Les prix du pétrole brut étaient en passe d'enregistrer une forte hausse hebdomadaire, le Brent étant sur la voie d'un gain d'environ 6 $ par baril et le WTI enregistrant une progression beaucoup plus modeste, passant d'environ 99 $ le baril lundi à plus de 100 $ plus tôt aujourd'hui. Au moment de la rédaction, le brut Brent se négociait à 114,00 $ le baril et le West Texas Intermediate s'échangeait à 100,40 $ le baril, alors que les hostilités au Moyen-Orient restent à la une pour les négociants en pétrole. L'attention semble toutefois se porter sur les attaques des Houthis contre les infrast

Après des mois de prix de l'énergie élevés, l'Europe peut s'attendre à une poursuite de la hausse des coûts des carburants durant les mois d'hiver avec l'augmentation de la demande. Les contraintes persistantes sur le commerce de l'énergie et les menaces pesant sur les infrastructures énergétiques au Moyen-Orient devraient limiter les approvisionnements mondiaux et continuer à faire grimper les prix, frappant durement les consommateurs à moins que les gouvernements n'interviennent. L'Union européenne (UE) aurait payé 100 milliards d'euros supplémentaires pour le pétrole et le gaz depuis le déb
The artificial intelligence boom is placing a dangerous strain on the world’s water and energy resources. As hyperscalers build up resource-hungry data centers at a breakneck pace, demand projections for these finite resources are skyrocketing faster than policymakers can keep pace. But a new study from researchers at the University of Texas at Austin suggests that there may be a way to sustainably source water for data centers by using wastewater from the oil and gas industry. The water and energy use of AI data centers is enormous…
Malgré la guerre en Iran et la crise d'Ormuz, la production de produits chimiques à faible coût du Moyen-Orient est en passe de conserver son avantage à long terme sur les autres régions. Des changements à court terme dans l'approvisionnement en polymères ont lieu en raison des contraintes actuelles sur la base industrielle du golfe Persique, ce qui profite aux entreprises chimiques américaines. Mais à long terme, le Moyen-Orient devrait conserver sa base d'acheteurs car il dispose toujours des deux leviers pour être compétitif sur le marché mondial : une base de production étendue et, surtout
Pendant les trois premiers mois environ de la guerre entre les États-Unis, Israël et l'Iran, l'humeur dominante sur les marchés pétroliers était que le conflit prendrait fin d'un jour à l'autre. Le bref cessez-le-feu de juin a renforcé cet optimisme, il a donc fallu un certain temps avant de faire face à la réalité : la guerre ne prendrait pas fin d'un jour à l'autre. Elle pourrait même se prolonger jusqu'à l'année prochaine, ce qui signifie des prix plus élevés pour une période plus longue. Le contrat à terme sur le pétrole brut Brent de l'ICE pour janvier 2027 s'échange à 102,59 $ le baril.

A ship’s anchor can wreak havoc on the world’s undersea infrastructure, something that has provided plenty of rich material for Splash reporting in recent years.

Crude oil prices, which dipped on Tuesday, reversed their direction, with Brent ticking above $100 again earlier today following reports of fresh Houthi attacks on Saudi energy infrastructure. At the time of writing, Brent crude was trading at $101.49 per barrel and West Texas Intermediate was changing hands for $90.14 per barrel, despite a statement from Saudi Arabia’s energy minister, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, who said Tuesday the kingdom’s oil flows via the Rast-West pipeline had rebounded to 5.8 million barrels daily. The statement…
Shipping markets rarely announce the top with any clarity. More often, the argument about whether the peak has arrived only really starts when freight rates are still climbing, asset values are making less and less conventional sense and owners are sufficiently confident to keep buying ships at prices that would have looked ridiculous a few …
The transits are a lifeline to gulf energy producers and a boon to shipowners and commodity traders who stand to reap billions of dollars from the trade.
Tajikistan announced that it is now receiving oil and petroleum products from Iran, opening a potential new energy source for a country whose fuel supplies have long been dominated by Russia. The deliveries began in late August, Tajikistan's Energy and Water Resources Ministry told the Asia-Plus news agency, following talks between the two countries on expanding cooperation in the oil and gas sector. The ministry has not disclosed the volume of the shipments, their commercial terms, or how the oil and petroleum products were transported to Tajikistan.…
Iranian oil is disappearing from the market just as its biggest buyer returns for more. China’s recovering crude demand is colliding with the loss of a supplier that sustained its independent refiners through the crisis, forcing them to compete for increasingly expensive alternatives. The consequences reach beyond China: every replacement barrel tightens supplies for other buyers, while Tehran faces a growing incentive to disrupt the Strait of Hormuz, which is now carrying an unexpectedly strong 13 million barrels a day (just 5 million below…

The argument now dividing …

China’s diesel fuel and gasoline inventories are declining, which may eventually lead to the imposition of export curbs, Bloomberg has reported, citing recent fuel inventory data. Gasoline inventories at state-owned energy majors were down by 2.9% last week to their lowest level since 2022, according to Chinese commodity market research firm JLC International. Diesel inventories are sitting at the lowest in 15 months, booking a 2.4% dip last week, the publication noted. “With the domestic market tightening, we see an increasing risk…

For the first four months of the war between the United States and Israel and Iran, oil traders remained largely bearish. The overwhelming expectation was that the war would end soon—even as July rolled around—and oil flows out of Hormuz would recover. Instead, the world is slipping into a fuel shortage, and traders have gone bullish. They are especially bullish on fuels in the United States, it seems. The world’s biggest crude oil consumer and the biggest exporter of crude and fuels has not managed to avoid a supply squeeze at…

Washington’s takeover of more than a fifth of Venezuela’s oil reserves in a deal officially signed by U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright on 2 September was as unexpected as it was dramatic, with President Donald Trump’s comment a few days earlier that it is “the biggest oil deal in world history” looking justified from several perspectives. From a pure volume standpoint, the deal covers 65 billion barrels of proven crude oil reserves (out of Venezuela’s total 303 billion barrels) across 17 fields. To put that…

Governments worldwide are racing to develop small modular reactors (SMRs) as part of their plans for a nuclear power renaissance, with significant progress being seen in recent years. However, the United States appears to be leading the way in nuclear microreactor development, with significant investment in the technology recently announced by the U.S. Army. SMRs are advanced nuclear reactors with a power capacity of up to 300 MW(e) per unit, or around one-third of the generating capacity of a conventional nuclear reactor. They are much smaller…

Citadel is shopping for U.S. oil production assets, including a previous bid for WildFire Energy before Magnolia Oil & Gas agreed to buy the Eagle Ford producer for $4.06 billion. Reuters reported Friday that the hedge fund and commodities trader has held talks with several private-equity owners of oil-weighted exploration and production companies in recent weeks. WildFire would have given Citadel roughly 53,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day of production, about 70% of it oil, plus 810,000 net acres in South Texas. Magnolia ultimately won…

With the overall jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showing a surprisingly big jump in employment, truck transportation participated in that rebound. The monthly report showed truck transportation employment rising 4,800 jobs to 1,470,300. It’s the highest level of jobs in the sector since October. But with employment since then mostly trending down each month, the number of jobs in the sector is still about 10,000 jobs less than it was a year ago. window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []}; googletag.cmd.push(function() { var gptSlot = googletag.defineSlot('/21776187881/FW-
