Asia Distillates-Markets little changed though regrade narrows
SINGAPORE, Nov 26 (Reuters) -Asia's spot middle distillate markets were little changed on Tuesday, though the regrade spread narrowed as the gasoil complex largely retained strength.
Cash premiums for 10ppm sulphur gasoil GO10-SIN-DIF continued to hold near 50 cents a barrel, while backwardation for the Dec/Jan contract widened slightly from the previous session.
Margins for gasoil inched up to premiums above $16.70 a barrel, according to LSEG data at 0830 GMT.
Meanwhile, jet fuel continued to hold stable amid thin trading momentum.
Regrade spread JETREG10SGMc1 narrowed to a premium of 50 cents a barrel on Tuesday, reflecting the relatively stronger performance of the gasoil market.
