Kpler policy head: stock releases may ease energy pressure but not solve it
Michelle Brouhard, head of policy and geopolitical risk at Kpler, told Daily Sabah on Nov. 3, 2026 that potential strategic stock releases and adjustments in global trade flows, along with some relief in parts of the refined products market, could ease some immediate energy-market pressure. She said the underlying problem has not gone away, with refined product flows through the Strait of Hormuz still disrupted and market pressure shifting from diesel toward jet fuel.
