Phillips 66 remains a buy, supported by refining modernization, midstream growth, and favorable crack spreads amid heightened geopolitical risk. PSX benefits from sourcing Venezuelan crude and widening crack spreads, with near-term margins above the long-term $25 norm. Refining utilization and operating cost reductions structurally enhance margins, while midstream EBITDA targets of $4.5B by 2027 appear attainable.
Phillips 66 stands to gain as the EIA predicts falling crude prices through 2027, while its expanding midstream arm generates steady, fee-based cash flows.
U.S. refiners Phillips 66 and Citgo Petroleum are seeking to buy heavy crude directly from Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA starting in April to maximize profits, rather than purchasing through trading houses and U.S. oil major Chevron , according to sources familiar with the efforts.
