O2C – Balancing Opportunities and Risks in a Volatile Period
1. Highest ever O2C EBITDA with improved margins
2. Strong fuel cracks, stable downstream contribution partially
offset by multiple headwinds
✓ Strengthening of Asian OSPs from ME – reducing margin
capture
✓ Losses on domestic fuel retailing due to capped realization
✓ Realized price variations in a highly volatile and uncertain
market
✓ Lower volumes with planned turnaround of Hazira cracker
and DHDS
✓ Higher opex with rise in energy and freight cost
Exceptional performance even as world adjusts to new energy market dynamics

Macro 2. EU decided to phase out Russian oil and gas import by year end
3. Robust demand for middle distillates export to EU from Asia and Middle East after Russian oil embargo
1. Limited spare refining capacity and strong oil demand expected to keep refining margin high
Margin 2. Recovery in aviation demand, subsiding pandemic woes and lower exports from China to support margins
3. PX, PTA and MEG margins expected to be range bound due to capacity overhang
1. Transport fuel demand expected to remain strong with easing of lockdowns in China
Demand
Drivers 2. Polyester / Polymer demand expected to improve with upcoming festive season
1. Recession fears overtaking oil market fundamentals resulting in lower prices and margins
Challenges 2. High inflation in many countries prompting central banks to raise interest rates
