First impact
Diesel and Heavy Fuel Oil (underground mining and backup power) →Shortage riskTelecommunications networks in Republic of Congo
Reported diesel shortages prevent backup generators from covering grid deficits, disrupting telecom network operation.
“telecommunications operators cannot compensate for the deficit of electricity supply due to the difficulties in supplying diesel necessary for the operation of the generators used to power infrastructure.”

Fuel shortages leave telecom operators unable to keep backup generators running, disrupting service continuity.
“Privés de carburant pour alimenter leurs groupes électrogènes de secours, les opérateurs de télécommunications peinent à assurer la continuité de leurs services.”

Diesel and heavy fuel oil are used for underground mining and backup power, so a supply shortfall can constrain PGM extraction and output.
62% confidenceGasoline and diesel →Prices easeA gasoline/diesel production halt lowers refinery crude runs, reducing demand for crude feedstock and pushing its price down.

Crude Oil Feedstock →Shortage riskCrude oil feedstock is a critical, fully dependent input for gasoline and diesel, so any production halt or supply disruption transmits directly into tighter fuel availability.
96% confidenceCrude Oil Feedstock →Shortage riskHome heating oil also depends directly on crude oil feedstock, so a feedstock disruption would constrain its supply as well.

Hop 3
Home heating oil →Prices easeIf home heating oil output is curtailed, refinery demand for its primary feedstock falls, which can soften crude-oil feedstock prices.
