North America Base Oil Prices Movement Q4:
Base Oil Prices in the United States:
| Product | Category | Price |
| Base Oil | Feedstock | 1667 USD/MT |
The USA Base Oil Price Forecast at the end of 2024 demonstrated overall market stability with prices reaching 1667 USD/MT in December. The market might have been stable, but there were slight price declines due to lower demand from the lubricating market. Before the hurricane season, suppliers pre-booked the barrels, and inventories were full in October. Despite prudent market sentiment, limited spot sales in November ensured an optimum supply-demand situation. These elements combined created the Base Oil Price Forecast, which highlighted the influence of seasonal preparedness and fluctuations in business demand on price trends.

APAC Base Oil Prices Movement Q4:
Base Oil Prices in Singapore:
| Product | Category | Price | |
| Base Oil | Feedstock | 783 USD/MT |
In the latter part of 2024, the Base Oil Price Trend in Singapore declined sharply, with prices falling to 783 USD/MT in December following market oversupply, soft lubricant demand, and declining crude oil prices. The reduction in plant shutdowns did not stem production fully, while consistent supply in October and a sharp collapse in crude prices in November reduced the cost of production, further challenging oil prices. The weak downstream demand prompted both local and foreign suppliers to sell off excess inventories, accelerating the downward price trend. The Base Oil Price Forecast indicates that the interplay of volatile crude prices and supply-demand disequilibrium will continue to shape market movements in the next few months.

Europe Base Oil Prices Movement Q4:
Base Oil Prices in the Netherlands:
| Product | Category | Price |
| Base Oil | Feedstock | 963 USD/MT |
The Netherlands Base Oil Price Forecast Chart for the latter part of 2024 showed a decline initially before stabilizing, with prices reaching as low as 963 USD/MT in December. Despite supply glitches in late October due to inclement weather, overall supply was sufficient. Weak lubricant demand and falling crude oil prices also further reduced the cost of production, thus pushing prices lower. In November, ExxonMobil’s inventory report provided the market with confidence, preventing sharp declines and maintaining price stability. But with suppliers selling inventories ahead of the holiday shutdowns in December, market activity slowed down, leading to additional price reductions. All these elements combined affected the Base Oil Price Forecast Chart, highlighting the effect of supply adjustment and demand fluctuation on price trends.

These combined to affect the Base Oil Price History Chart, which reflects how geopolitical tensions, supply conditions, and seasonal changes affected prices.

Factors Affecting Base Oil Prices and Demand:
The prices and demand of base oil are governed by several essential factors. Most essential among these is the crude petroleum price movement, as base oil is a result of processing crude petroleum. The base oil demand by industrial sectors like lubricants, auto, and manufacturing plays a crucial role in deciding the direction of oil prices. Furthermore, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical considerations, and environmental regulations may affect the availability and cost of production. Seasonal fluctuations, technological innovations in lubricants, and increased demand for synthetics also drive oil prices and demand, resulting in market volatility.
