Biodiesel premiums fall to two-year low thanks to geopolitical tensions

March 5, 2026 |

In Washington, Platts reports biodiesel premiums have tightened to the lowest in two years thanks to rising crude prices that pushed bup gasoil. Gasoil prices are up more than a third since Feb. 27, before the US and Israel attacked Iran. Concerns over trade through the Strait of Hormuz has seen traders build a risk premium into the price. Meanwhile, premiums for RME flipped with UCOME premiums, putting the rapeseed version on top for the first time since December.
