Saudi\u2019s 2014 decision to abandon the swing producer role was a tacit admission that defending high prices was just funding shale\u2019s expansion. The 2016 Opec+ pivot \u2014 when Opec and 11 non-Opec members signed the Vienna Declaration of Cooperation to formalize Opec+ \u2014 effectively turned oil-price management from a Saudi-led project into a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/detail.php?id=61102\" style=\"\">Saudi-Russia coordination problem<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>From there, the structure kept shedding pieces<\/strong> \u2014 Qatar walked in 2019, Ecuador in 2020, and Angola in 2024 \u2014 each citing some version of the same baseline-versus-capacity grievance, with chronic \u201ccheating\u201d by Iraq, Russia, and Kazakhstan running in the background throughout.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The UAE\u2019s exit was a long time coming:<\/strong> Quota tensions had been building for years. The 2021 baseline dispute \u2014 when Abu Dhabi blocked an Opec+ agreement because its 3.17 mn bbl \/ d baseline no longer matched its 4+ mn bbl \/ d capacity \u2014 got papered over rather than resolved. The mismatch only widened from there. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/JoumannaTV\/status\/2049367783516033280\" style=\"\">As Bloomberg\u2019s Ziad Daoud has noted<\/a>, last year\u2019s average oil price of USD 67 per barrel meant the UAE recorded a budget surplus of nearly 5% of GDP, while Saudi Arabia faced a 5% deficit. Different fiscal realities, different incentives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\"> So, what are we left with now?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Essentially three large strategic producers (Saudi Arabia, Russia, UAE) with a total <\/strong><strong>sustainable production capacity between them of around 27-28 mn bbl \/ d.<\/strong> They each have different fiscal breakevens, different capacity trajectories, different geopolitical ambitions, and different posturing toward Washington \u2014 Russia is ambivalent at best, and Saudi Arabia and the UAE competing directly for attention, influence, and investment. We also still have a US shale fringe that is structurally elastic in a way the original model never assumed. Plus Iraqi, Iranian, and Libyan production that remain in theory viable, but currently volatile for political reasons rather than commercial ones. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>In a nutshell:<\/strong> Three distinct groups, no direct organization, and a complete mess.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This is, formally, closer to a three-player coordination problem with imperfect monitoring<\/strong><strong> and divergent payoffs.<\/strong> The economics literature on three-player tacit collusion is as unkind as it is complicated, and stable coordination there is harder by a non-trivial margin. As Hamzeh Al Gaaod put it in his note that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2026\/4\/1459.pdf?utm_source=enterpriseammenaplus.beehiiv.com&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=enterpriseam-mena-2026-04-29-007-wednesday&_bhlid=7ad4b133e67062f26987102059ad96d664fb6107\" style=\"\">we shared on Wednesday<\/a>, the exit signals \u201ca decisive shift toward an independent, state-driven oil strategy.\u201d Cheating, in cartel terms, is now done by more players \u2014 and who are no longer in the room.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Why this matters<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">The oil price floor is probably weakened severely and permanently. For the next 12-18 months, that reality will be masked by the Strait of Hormuz blockade and lingering production disruptions keeping prices elevated regardless of structure. After that is where the picture changes materially.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Riyadh's choice gets harder:<\/strong> If Saudi Arabia tries to defend prices through deeper unilateral cuts, those cuts could fail faster than they used to. If it accepts a lower realized price and goes for higher market share, the price band stabilizes lower \u2014 and that wouldn't bode well for Vision 2030's expansionary fiscal stance. Saudi fiscal breakeven commentary has been creeping toward USD 100 \/ bbl as spending accelerates, and the marginal cost of defending that level has probably just gone up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The pain wouldn't stay in the Gulf:<\/strong> A sustained oil price collapse poses risks to Egyptian, Jordanian, Pakistani, and Indian fiscal positions through three channels at once: GCC remittances; FDI and project finance from Gulf sovereigns (the largest single source of new capital into Egypt over the past three years); and goods trade and transit revenues \u2014 including Suez Canal receipts. The medium-term external risk for the region's oil importers may no longer be a sustained price spike. Oddly enough, it could be a sustained price collapse that softens the Gulf's capacity to underwrite everyone downstream.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">What we're watching<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">Producers will continue meeting monthly, with the next one scheduled for 7 June. Beyond the headline output numbers, look at the language on quota discipline and the tone toward Russia. Watch for any noises about countries being readmitted or added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The UAE\u2019s stance will also become clearer over the next few weeks and we\u2019ll see if it<\/strong><strong> withdraws from more regional alliances and organizations<\/strong>. In the corporate world, we\u2019ll also keep a close eye on something like Adnoc\u2019s production trajectory: Capacity additions matter more than headline output now.

style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> <strong>US protectionism is pushing the rest of the world to rewire trade \u2014 and the <\/strong><strong>USD 22 <\/strong><strong>tn EU-Mercosur agreement makes that shift concrete.<\/strong> The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/european-union-mercosur-trade-deal-571f8814c51667650cc7fa3e0a754b10\" style=\"\">agreement<\/a> between the European Union and Mercosur went live provisionally on 1 May, linking 720 mn consumers into the largest freetrade area by population after more than 25 years of negotiations.<br \/><strong><br \/>The Mercosur agreement will gradually remove tariffs on most industrial and agricultural goods while shielding politically sensitive sectors like beef, poultry, sugar, and fruit. <\/strong>Framed by Brazilian President Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva as a direct response to US President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs and \u201ca reaffirmation of multilateralism,\u201d the agreement is expected to deliver relatively <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/eu-mercosur-deal-takes-effect-but-the-fight-goes-on\/\" style=\"\">modest economic gains<\/a> despite its scale. The next phase of this agreement is likely to show up in investment flows, not just trade volumes. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How?<\/strong> By lowering barriers and aligning rules, it gives European firms a clearer path into South America\u2019s supply chains \u2014 especially in areas like mineral processing, where China has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chart\/35398\/china-dominant-share-in-global-mining-production-of-critical-minerals\/?srsltid=AfmBOoojr1q03ZMta9to5xXBOYWHHTOgGi7UDVMySbBAo2h66xQFXmQK\" style=\"\">long dominated investment<\/a>. As competition for resources tied to energy and industrial policy intensifies, countries are responding to a more protectionist US stance by deepening ties elsewhere. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why does it matter? <\/strong>The agreement pulls the EU into that competition, expanding its role from trade partner to long-term investor in mining, processing, and infrastructure. Ongoing talks with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/china\/eu-kickstarts-mercosur-pact-counter-us-trade-hit-2026-04-30\/\" style=\"\">India, Indonesia, and Australia<\/a> reflect a wider effort to stay involved in shaping trade and investment as global rules weaken and countries increasingly turn to region-to-region agreements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Companies are already positioning around that shift. <\/strong>South American agribusinesses \u2014 from beef and fruit to minerals \u2014 are looking to expand exports into Europe, while European automakers, pharma firms, and tech companies are targeting growth and investment prospects in Mercosur. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Where the risks lie: <\/strong>The agreement is not fully locked in \u2014 Ursula von der Leyen moved to enact it provisionally without full parliamentary approval, triggering a possible court challenge at the EU\u2019s judiciary. If the court rules against it, the agreement could be halted, raising questions over long-term investment flows and the EU\u2019s credibility. Even so, markets like Mercosur are unlikely to fully replace lost trade with Washington, underscoring that this is more about diversification than substitution.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The bottom line:<\/strong> Beyond beef quotas, this is about supply chains, capital allocation, and geopolitical positioning. As US protectionism reshapes global trade, blocs like EU-Mercosur are moving to redirect flows of goods, capital, and influence \u2014 if judicial challenges don\u2019t derail it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asia-Pacific markets are up in early trading this morning<\/strong>, led by South Korea\u2019s Kospi, which is up over 3.6%.
