Upside risk to Oil prices rises as market tightens – ANZ
Brent Crude bottomed out at $72/bbl in June and then rose more than 28% over the following three months to break above $90/bbl. Economists at ANZ Bank analyze Oil’s outlook.
Market tightening significantly over the next three months
With OPEC’s production cuts firmly in place for the remainder of the year, we see the market moving into a deficit of 2mb/d in Q4. This tightness is likely to continue into Q1 2024 as production constraints remain in place and will keep Oil prices on an upward trajectory in Q4. We maintain our end of year price target of $100/bbl.
However, market conditions are closer to ‘managed tightness’ than to the fundamental pressures that pushed prices above $100/bbl last year.
As it stands, spare capacity is ample. OPEC’s supply agreements have done their job and stabilised the market. However, the eventual unwinding of these over the next 6-12 months will ease the current supply tightness. As such, we don’t see much upside over our short-term target in 2024.
