Starting from Gulf Coast crude oil feedstock (jet fraction), we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Gulf Coast crude oil feedstock (jet fraction) →supply upJet fuel is a critical downstream product of this feedstock, so a relief in Gulf supply should materially increase jet fuel availability.
87% confidenceGasoline and diesel →Stands to benefitIf the fuel-supply relief is met through higher refining throughput, crude oil is the primary feedstock and the most direct upstream beneficiary.
47% confidenceHop 2
Crude Oil Feedstock →Prices riseCrude oil feedstock is a critical direct input, so conflict-driven disruption in energy markets would raise gasoline and diesel costs.
76% confidenceCrude Oil Feedstock →Prices riseAs another critical crude-derived fuel, home heating oil should get more expensive when crude feedstock markets are disrupted.
74% confidenceJet fuel →Prices riseGulf Coast crude oil feedstock (jet fraction)
Jet fuel is heavily dependent on this critical feedstock, so conflict-driven tightening and rerouting of aviation fuel supply is likely to lift demand and price for the input.
Hop 3
Home heating oil →Prices riseHome heating oil is fully dependent on crude oil feedstock, so efforts to secure more heating-oil supply would tighten crude demand and lift its price.
