Asia
In Asia, kerosene prices increased due to strong supply-side pressure and import dependence. The Iran war disrupted tanker routes through the Strait of Hormuz, raising freight and insurance costs and tightening supply availability. India imports a large share of its crude from the Middle East, and disruptions to these flows forced refiners to seek alternative sources and adjust logistics, increasing production costs and supporting kerosene price increases. Feedstock shortages and delayed cargo arrivals reduced refinery output flexibility, while demand from aviation and household fuel segments remained stable but price-sensitive, limiting stronger consumption growth.
Europe
In Europe, kerosene prices increased due to constrained imports and higher procurement costs. Disruptions in Gulf exports forced buyers to compete for limited cargoes, raising freight rates and insurance premiums. Partial rerouting of LNG and energy cargoes affected supply chains, while a stronger dollar increased import costs. Supply tightness combined with cautious downstream demand from aviation and industrial sectors kept prices elevated, though inflation and economic uncertainty restricted demand expansion.
North America
In the North American markets, kerosene prices increased due to global supply tightening and elevated transportation costs. Reduced availability of imported feedstock and higher risk premiums on shipments supported price increases. Strategic stockpiles and domestic production adjustments helped maintain supply stability, but elevated geopolitical risks and higher refining costs sustained upward pressure on kerosene prices. Demand from the aviation and heating sectors remained steady but sensitive to price increases, limiting sharper consumption growth.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, kerosene prices are expected to remain firm as long as supply disruptions and logistical constraints persist, while any normalization in shipping flows through the Strait of Hormuz could ease price pressure.

Asia
The Asian kerosene market experienced significant volatility throughout the fourth quarter of 2025, with prices moving in different directions across the period. The Philippines saw repeated upward adjustments during October and early November, driven primarily by geopolitical tensions affecting global oil supplies. Supply constraints from major exporting nations created pressure on regional markets. These disruptions rippled through Asian supply chains, forcing local retailers to implement multiple price increases. However, the trajectory showed some inconsistency, with short periods of stability or minor reductions distributed between the larger changes. Domestic demand from major Asian economies remained relatively steady, providing some support for prices even during periods when global crude oil trends suggested potential downward movement.
Europe
European kerosene markets faced a unique set of challenges during Q4’25, heavily influenced by the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict. The aviation fuel sector encountered particular strain as Russian refineries adapted their production processes to address domestic fuel shortages. Industry concerns emerged about potential supply disruptions for aviation kerosene, as refineries began blending winter diesel with kerosene to meet regulatory requirements. The situation prompted discussions about implementing price controls to prevent excessive speculation and maintain stability for the aviation industry during the critical winter travel season.
North America
North American kerosene markets remained relatively more stable compared to other global regions during the fourth quarter. The market benefited from less direct exposure to the geopolitical disruptions affecting European and Asian supplies. However, North American prices still reflected broader global energy market dynamics, including sanctions imposed on Russian energy companies and production adjustments by major oil producing nations.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, Kerosene prices will likely remain sensitive to geopolitical developments and refinery production decisions. Supply stability depends on conflict resolution and normalized production patterns resuming across major exporting regions.
Kerosene is one of the most common combustible hydrocarbon liquid. It is derived from petroleum. It is extensively utilised as a fuel in aviation and households. Kerosene is also known for its low viscosity. It is a clear liquid that is formed from hydrocarbons obtained from the fractional distillation of petroleum.

In this process, after the extraction of crude oil from the earth’s surface, it is heated to separate the components and obtain Kerosene via evaporation. This is followed by condensation and purification of Kerosene.
