China repondrá crudo pese al techo de demanda en plena guerra contra Irán, dice consultora

Chinese state-owned refineries are preparing to replenish their crude oil reserves, according to a report published on October 15 in Beijing. These reserves were previously utilized to cushion the domestic impact of rising petroleum prices resulting from the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran.

The strategic decision to restock comes despite indications that China's overall petroleum demand may have already reached its peak. The development highlights the complex balance between national energy security and shifting macroeconomic consumption trends within the world's leading energy markets amidst geopolitical hostilities.
