取暖油期货价格攀升至每加仑2.48美元，为2月中旬以来的最高水平，因为伊朗-以色列爆发的原油原料成本飙升，导致投入费用大幅上涨。在德黑兰附近再次发生罢工和特朗普总统的撤离令之后，美国墨西哥湾沿岸炼油厂正在为轻质低硫原油支付高额溢价，压缩了馏分油利润。与此同时，馏分油库存已降至多年低点，美国取暖油库存达到2014年以来的最低季节性水平，尽管炼油厂已接近产能，无法满足强劲的柴油和船用燃料需求。与此同时，由于对海湾战争风险的担忧，油轮运费和保险费飙升，进一步推高了交付成本。在需求方面，尽管春季天气温和，但北美柴油消费强劲和欧洲工业活动反弹，吸收了有限的馏分油供应，使取暖油价格居高不下。
Heating oil futures climbed toward $2.48 per gallon, the highest since mid-February, as surging crude-oil feedstock costs amid the Iran–Israel flare-up drove input expenses sharply higher. US Gulf Coast refiners are paying steep premiums for light-sweet crudes following renewed strikes near Tehran and President Trump’s evacuation order, compressing distillate margins. At the same time, distillate inventories have fallen to multi-year lows, US heating-oil stocks hit their lowest seasonal level since 2014, even as refineries run near capacity to satisfy robust diesel and marine-fuel demand. Meanwhile tanker freight and insurance premiums have surged on Gulf war-risk fears, further lifting delivered costs. On the demand side, strong North American diesel consumption and a rebound in European industrial activity, despite mild spring weather, have absorbed the limited distillate supply, keeping heating-oil prices firmly elevated.
