Extended read

The projection of $60 oil by 2027 suggests a significant structural shift in the energy market. Currently, prices are buoyed by a substantial geopolitical risk premium. As these tensions resolve, the market is expected to return to a state of oversupply, driven by non-OPEC production growth and slowing demand in transition economies. This shift would be disinflationary for the global economy but poses a challenge for high-cost producers in the US shale and deepwater segments.
