Iran war could drive a sharp profit surge for US oil refiners

MarketWatch says supply disruptions linked to the conflict are expected to boost refinery profit potential.

U.S. oil refiners are poised to see a historic jump in profits as supply disruptions tied to the Iran war reshape energy flows, according to MarketWatch.

The outlet points to a “massive boom” scenario in which refiners benefit from disruptions that can tighten certain supply routes and increase margins.

With refiners preparing to report, the focus will be on how quickly the industry can capture higher profitability from the altered supply conditions.
