    Watch IRAN’s Tondugyan refinery at the moment it went up in flames.

    Notes
    1.it is located on theSouth side of TEHRAN.
    2. See the cameraman focus in on a gasoline tank that is spewing gasoline from high on the side of the tank, just before the tank collapses, explodes. And fire spreads through nearby Pipelines and adjacent petrochemical tanks.
    3.It’s unclear how many tanks burned…..apparently 16.
    4. Fire burned for 2 days.
    5. According to Iran media as of late Friday the REFINERY is back in operation🤗 and running normally😄😄😄.

    re 1 – yeah, a bit skeptical of that. Although, could be one isolated tank farm, given that the refinery itself is not in view in the videos I’ve seen.

    Oil Speculators: NYMEX net non commercial long vs shorts rallied back to 6.0x vs 5.7x in the prior week. Below 6x we see as unremarkable. Above we see as setting up more volatile moves on any negative news. We note this metric has gone borderline noteworthy a couple of times in the last 8 weeks and we’ve seen pretty good pull backs in price come at those times (tied to Iran news largely) in the week before it peaks and then eased.

    More fires in Iran……this time in oil field facilities in SW Iran

    https://www.voanews.com/middle-east/voa-news-iran/oil-facility-fires-reported-irans-southwestern-ahvaz-region

    Note the analyst in this Voice of America article states the damage to the Refinery in Tehran (Fire earlier in week as noted in 1 above) was major…..and the Refinery will have to be rebuilt…..not the tune the Gov’t of Iran was singing.

    Speculation as to cause set aside……it is a fact maintenance is a real problem in Iran…..as well as mismanagement…..in part because political & military (IRGC) connections are far more important than technical credentials.
