Earlier this month, the company signaled earlier this month, when the oil refining margin dropped sharply, the profit would be reduced between $ 300 million and $ 700 million compared to the third quarter.
The startup of a new oil refining place by other companies in Asia and Africa has led to an increase in global fuel supply, even if the demand for gasoline and diesel delayed expectations.
