Nearly 900 enterprises on the stock exchange have announced their financial reports for the third quarter of 2024. According to current estimates, the leading enterprise in the petroleum sector is Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Joint Stock Company - the unit that manages and operates Dung Quat oil refinery (stock code BSR) and is currently the enterprise on the stock exchange that recorded the largest loss in the last quarter.
Specifically, the company achieved revenue in the third quarter of 2024 of nearly VND 32,000 billion, down nearly 16% compared to the same period last year.

Unexpectedly, the petroleum company - the unit managing and operating Dung Quat oil refinery reported a loss in the third quarter of 2024.
According to the company's explanation, the reason for the large loss was due to the sharp decline in crude oil and product prices in the third quarter of 2024. Crude oil prices fell from an average of 85.31 USD/barrel in July to 74.33 USD/barrel in September, and the gap between crude oil prices and product prices also narrowed significantly compared to the second quarter of 2024 and the same period last year.
