    Tariff Talk: Why a Strait Reopening Won’t Be a Quick Fix

    OPIS TALKS COAL, METALS & MINING: In this Tariff Talk episode of OPIS Talks, James Stevenson and Charles Dayton examine the latest US-Iran memorandum of understanding and why any reopening of the Strait is unlikely to bring an immediate return to normal energy flows. They discuss why the market may be underestimating the time, cost and logistical hurdles involved in restoring crude, LNG and refined-product movement, even after a ceasefire. The conversation also looks at what tighter inventories and ongoing uncertainty could mean for diesel buyers and risk management, particularly for mining and industrial customers. The episode closes with a look at newly announced Section 301 tariffs and why tariff uncertainty may be on firmer legal footing rather than fading away. Have questions or feedback?

    Strait Constraints: Skyrocketing Freight Rates and the Global Energy Crisis

    OPIS TALKS REFINED FUEL: The global shipping and freight landscape has undergone a chaotic transformation as an ongoing conflict between the U.S. and Iran completely scrambles global product flows. In the episode of OPIS Talks, the first of a limited series on refined spot products, Reagan Pritchard, OPIS lead editor for the U.S. Gulf Coast Distillates Market, joins Tom Sosnowski, associate director of global marine fuels for OPIS, to analyze this sudden disruption. They discuss how a three-month shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz has trapped 1,600 vessels, forcing traffic around the Cape of Good Hope and sending freight rates to astronomical heights. They also evaluate logistical stopgaps, such as Saudi Arabia's Yanbu terminal, and detail how the Trump administration's Jones Act waivers enabled foreign-flagged ships to deliver critical fuel from the U.S. Gulf Coast to California. Finally, they examine the extensive 18-to-22-week timeline required to safely restore normal maritime transit. Have questions or feedback? Please drop us a line at energy-marketing@opisnet.com.

    Up in the Air: Charting CORSIA's Complicated Carbon Path

    OPIS TALKS ENVIRONMENTAL COMMODITIES: Humberto J. Rocha sits down with senior markets editor Henry Kronk to unpack CORSIA — the UN-backed scheme pushing airlines to limit growth in emissions through sustainable aviation fuel and carbon credit retirements. Henry walks us through the tightening supply of CORSIA-eligible credits, the process and politics of credit authorization under the Paris Agreement, and what a potential U.S. exit could mean for prices, compliance risk and competition in global aviation.

    Denominator: Building the Infrastructure Layer for Carbon Intelligence

    OPIS TALKS ENVIRONMENTAL COMMODITIES: Humberto J. Rocha sits down with Svenja Telle, CEO of Denominator, to explore the work involved in building the infrastructure behind credible carbon data.

Tune in to learn more about Environmental Attribute Certificates (EACs), climate-tech financing barriers and why Svenja, who will be at CERA Week this month, sees Denominator as an infrastructure company first, and a climate tech company second.

    The Shifting Dynamics of European Carbon Markets

    OPIS TALKS ENVIRONMENTAL COMMODITIES: In this episode of OPIS Talks, host Humberto J. Rocha sits down with Guadalupe Ruiz, Principal Carbon Markets Analyst at Dow Jones, to unpack the dramatic shifts in European carbon markets over the past year. Guadalupe breaks down the three major trends that shaped EU carbon allowance (EUA) prices in 2025: the evolving relationship between natural gas and carbon prices as renewables reshape the power sector, the impact of US tariffs and trade policy uncertainty on industrial demand, and the unprecedented surge in investment fund positioning that reached all-time highs this year. As 2026 unfolds, the conversation turns to the sharp reversal in market sentiment, driven by profit-taking, geopolitical tensions, and speculation around potential policy changes. Guadalupe also explores the upcoming EU ETS review, what it could mean for supply and demand dynamics, and how the UK-EU carbon market linkage is influencing price correlations. Whether you're tracking compliance obligations, investment strategies, or policy developments, this episode offers essential insights into the forces driving European carbon markets—and what to watch for in the months ahead.

    OPIS TALKS RENEWABLES: Jordan Godwin, Director of Renewable Fuels Pricing and News at OPIS, chat with Fred Ghatala, President of Advanced Biofuels Canada, to unpack the seismic shifts happening in Canadian biofuels policy.

Fred breaks down the delicate balance regulators face: protecting domestic producers while keeping fuel prices affordable, maintaining healthy credit markets, and ensuring long-term policy viability. From surging CFR credit prices to provincial policy updates in British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan, this episode covers everything you need to know about where Canadian biofuels are headed. Whether you're a producer, trader, or policy wonk, this conversation offers essential insights into how Canada is positioning itself for energy security, emissions reduction, and economic growth in the renewable fuels sector.
