Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - Short - term crude oil is likely to maintain a volatile pattern, as supply - side disruptions and weak demand are in a tug - of - war. Supply uncertainty is intensified by Russia's export decline and potential nationalization of European refineries, but the expected increase in UK North Sea production and the actual enforcement of US sanctions are questionable, which may limit the upside. Weak gasoline and diesel shipments on the demand side suppress refinery开工 willingness, and rising interest - rate hike expectations at the macro - level put pressure on oil prices [5]. Group 3: Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Daily Market Summary a. Crude Oil Futures Market Data Changes - On October 30, 2025, the SC crude oil main contract closed at 462.6 yuan per barrel, a slight 0.24% decline from the previous day, with a narrowed intraday fluctuation range, indicating intensified market long - short game.

The UK may cancel the North Sea oil and gas windfall tax, which may stimulate the recovery of North Sea production and relieve European supply pressure [3]. - **Demand side**: The news in the fuel oil market has improved, but the demand for gasoline and diesel remains weak, with refinery shipments being dull, reflecting weak terminal consumption. Some countries such as Hungary and India still rely on Russian crude oil, showing demand resilience [3]. - **Inventory side**: On October 24, excluding strategic reserves, commercial crude oil inventories decreased by 6.858 million barrels to 416 million barrels, a decline of 1.62%.
