Repsol prevê complexidade no fornecimento de derivados de petróleo na Europa devido a Ormuz

O diretor executivo da Repsol, Josu Jon Imaz, alertou na quinta-feira sobre períodos de complexidade no fornecimento de derivados de petróleo em toda a Europa nas próximas semanas e meses devido ao fechamento do Estreito de Ormuz.

Durante a assembleia de acionistas, Imaz explicou que o corte global de cerca de 11 a 12 milhões de barris por dia, equivalente a 11% do fornecimento total, não tem precedentes. Ele enfatizou que a Espanha se beneficia de uma forte rede de refinarias e reforçou seus estoques de querosene.

A empresa investiu mais de 1,5 bilhão de euros desde 1º de março para garantir o suprimento, alcançando agora um excedente de 20% em relação às necessidades nacionais. Imaz destacou o compromisso da Repsol com a Espanha e Portugal.

O presidente Antonio Brufau observou que o país está mais bem preparado do que a média europeia graças ao seu sistema de refino e à infraestrutura de gás natural. Ambos os executivos relembraram os investimentos realizados em refinarias como a de Cartagena nos últimos anos.

Escalation of conflict between Iran, the United States, and Israel has led Iran to order the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, halting tanker traffic and driving global oil prices above US$80 per barrel. The effects extend to Europe, which is now reconsidering plans to end Russian gas imports, while Indonesia pushes for de-escalation via the D-8 organization and assures stable fuel supplies.

TotalEnergies CEO Patrick Pouyanné warned that France would enter an era of energy shortage if the Strait of Ormuz blockade lasts another two or three months. He called for strengthening supply chain resilience through investments in new pipelines. He made these remarks at a conference in Chantilly.

The OPEC+ alliance is set to consider a larger-than-expected increase in oil supplies during its Sunday meeting, according to a delegate, following US and Israeli air strikes on targets inside Iran. This potential shift in production strategy comes amid military escalation threatening global energy flows. Israel’s Energy Ministry has ordered the temporary closure of several offshore natural gas fields due to security assessments.

The OPEC+ alliance announced an increase of 188,000 barrels per day in crude oil production starting June 2026. This adds to the 206,000 barrels rise announced in April. The blockade in the Strait of Ormuz, however, restricts its effect on global markets.

Two weeks into Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices have surged above $100 a barrel and natural gas costs have risen, accelerating adoption of renewable energy and electric vehicles, analysts say. Asia, the primary recipient of fuels through the strait, faces acute vulnerability.

On the fifth day of the war in Iran, Tehran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz has driven up oil and gas prices, affecting the global economy. European gas prices rose from 32 to 49 euros per MWh, while Brent crude climbed from 72 to 82 dollars per barrel. Europe, vulnerable due to its reliance on imports, faces heightened risks if the conflict drags on.
