Heating oil futures for delivery at New York Harbor slipped to around $4.10 per gallon but held most of their recent gains near a five-week high, as the Middle East conflict continues without a clear resolution, prolonging disruptions to regional energy supply. US President Donald Trump has rejected Tehran’s latest response to a proposed peace framework, keeping the Strait of Hormuz effectively shut. Maritime transit through the key passageway has been halted since early March, disrupting nearly 20 million barrels per day of crude oil and refined product exports to major importing countries. In response, refineries across Europe and Asia have shifted output toward diesel and jet fuel at the expense of gasoline. Meanwhile, the National Weather Service forecasts a high likelihood that most of the US will experience above-normal temperatures over the next 6–10 days, potentially curbing near-term heating demand.
