The UK, France, and Germany are particularly vulnerable. Data released by consultancy Energy Aspects on June 18 shows that Europes jet fuel supply deficit in the third quarter is expected to approach 600,000 barrels per day, while the US and Asia-Pacific regions have supply surpluses of 116,000 barrels per day and 425,000 barrels per day, respectively. Energy Aspects stated that European jet fuel inventories stood at 38 million barrels at the beginning of June. Reuters calculations show that European inventories could only meet less than 30 days of demand, making it the tightest supply region among the worlds major jet fuel markets. Data from the International Energy Agencys latest monthly report shows that as of the end of May, jet fuel inventories were estimated to have increased by 10% year-on-year, while refinery output increased by 30%. This also means that Europe has only about a months buffer time. Energy analyst Janiv Shah said, "Based on current developments, we expect the market tightness to continue into August."
