Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report The current crude oil market is gradually realizing the "weak reality" market expectation. Short - term logic is dominated by negative factors, with low - level fluctuations expected for short - term crude oil prices. SC is weaker than the external market due to domestic warehouse receipt pressure and weak demand. If OPEC+ further signals an increase in production and US inventories continue to accumulate, the oil price center may continue to decline [4]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Daily Market Summary - Crude Oil Futures Market Data Changes: On October 15, 2025, the price of the SC crude oil main contract dropped from 448.6 yuan/barrel to 443.7 yuan/barrel, a 1.09% decline, showing a five - day consecutive decline. WTI and Brent prices remained stable at 58.59 dollars/barrel and 62.28 dollars/barrel respectively. The SC - Brent spread narrowed from 0.54 dollars/barrel to 0, and the SC - WTI spread decreased from 4.23 dollars/barrel to 3.69 dollars/barrel. The SC continuous - consecutive 3 spread widened from - 1.5 yuan/barrel to - 3.8 yuan/barrel, indicating concerns about future supply pressure.

Pemex in Mexico reached a salary - increase agreement with the union, potentially reducing production interruption risks. However, UK sanctions on Russian oil companies may intensify geopolitical supply disruptions [3]. - Demand: US API data showed an unexpected 2.99 - million - barrel increase in gasoline inventory (expected a decrease of 0.838 million barrels), reflecting weak terminal fuel demand. Refined oil inventory decreased more than expected (- 4.79 million barrels) due to industrial demand support. India's commitment to stop importing Russian oil may suppress Asian market sentiment in the short term, but actual implementation will take time [3]. - Inventory: US API crude oil inventory increased by 7.36 million barrels, the largest weekly increase since February 2025, and Cushing's inventory pressure rose, indicating a loose supply - demand situation in the US. China's SC crude oil warehouse receipts remained at a high level of 5.4 million barrels, strengthening the expectation of inventory accumulation in the Asian market [3]. 2.
