Market Update

  • Market jumped yesterday after OPEC+ meeting resulted in a continuation of the planned increase in production of 400k barrels a day for the month of October
  • This announcement disappointed the market that was expecting an increase of production higher than the planned production. Expectations are that demand will outstrip supply in October, with OPEC+ forecasting demand will outstrip supply by 1.2M barrels for October and 900k barrels for November.
  • Demand for energy products remains strong in China with some having to switch to alternative products as a result of higher natural gas and coal prices. China’s private refiners waiting for quotas after power crisis.
  • There is still hope that OPEC+ will increase production further later this month in order to stifle the current shortfall.
  • Meanwhile Iran reiterated that the release of frozen funds would be the best way to get talks on the nuclear deal and sanctions restarted.
