- Middle East crude benchmark premiums of Dubai and Murban rebounded on Tuesday as the Iran war persisted and the supply outlook lingered.

U.S. President Donald Trump is unhappy with the latest Iranian proposal to end the war, a U.S. official said on Monday, as Iranian sources disclosed that it avoided addressing the nuclear program until hostilities cease and Gulf shipping disputes are resolved.

Trump's displeasure with the offer leaves the conflict deadlocked, with Iran shutting shipping flows through the Strait of Hormuz, a conduit for about 20% of global oil and gas supplies, and the U.S. retaining its blockade of Iranian ports.

Kazakhstan will redirect 260,000 metric tons of oil previously scheduled for transfer to Germany via the Druzhba pipeline in May, the country's energy ministry said on Tuesday.

JPMorgan and two Kuwaiti lenders are joining HSBC in a $6 billion financing syndicate for prospective buyers of a stake in Kuwait Petroleum Corporation's crude oil pipeline network, three people with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

Six tankers loaded with Iranian oil have been forced back to Iran by the U.S. blockade in recent days, ship-tracking data shows, underscoring the impact the Iran war is having on traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a major global oil export route.

Top U.S. independent refiners are expected to report stronger first-quarter results than a year ago, helped by supply disruptions tied to the war in the Middle East that drove fuel margins to multi-year highs.
