The story got digital ink in the Guardian<\/a> and CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

OIL WATCH-<\/p>\n

<\/a> Global oil markets, currently facing a deficit on the back of high summer demand, could<\/strong> shift to a surplus in the next quarter<\/strong> if Opec+ follows through with its plan to boost supplies in October, Bloomberg<\/a> reports citing an International Energy Agency (IEA) report. Oil inventories dipped in June by 26.2 mn barrels a day (bbl \/ d) on the back of increased summer demand. <\/p>\n

Demand is covered for next year:<\/strong> Even if the Opec+ cuts stay in place, oil inventories could gain an average 860k bbl \/ d next year on the back of non-Opec+ supply, the report said. <\/p>\n

REMEMBER- <\/strong>The oil carter agreed to begin phasing out production cuts<\/a> this fall at a June meeting in Riyadh, but said it could pause or reverse this decision depending on market conditions. A decision on this could come within a few weeks, Bloomberg said. <\/p>\n

The next checkpoint: <\/strong>The group is scheduled to meet again on Sunday, 1 December 2024.<\/p>\n
