OPEC Sec Gen Abdalla El-Badri: Uncertainties Ahead but Oil Market Supply and Demand Adjusting
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwired) -- 11/26/15 -- Writing in , Opec's secretary general Abdalla El-Badri commented that the global oil industry is adapting to market conditions, and that price stability in the year ahead can give market participants much needed calm for strategic development.
"The industry can expect to see a more balanced market in 2016 as global economic growth picks up, oil-demand growth continues its recent expansion, and non-Opec supply growth drops considerably," El-Badri wrote.
Emerging markets and those economies looking to evolve their energy platforms are expected to return to oil, with recession still straddling growth and major manufacturing slowdowns throughout much of Asia.
"Global demand for our crude in 2016 will be just over 30.8 million b/d, which is above the 30 million b/d Opec production ceiling that was maintained at the June 2015 ministerial meeting in Vienna. It's also a projected increase in demand for Opec's oil of over 1 million b/d compared with 2015, following an expected rise of around 600,000 b/d in 2015."
El-Bardi goes on to explain that one of the greatest impediments to market growth is the uncertainty around fluctuating prices; an issue that will hopefully be resolved in the coming months. With consumers, investors, and energy market producers feeling the pinch since the 2008 financial crisis uncertainty has flooded markets, with investors remaining uncommitted to projections. December sees the and , after which oil prices are expected to be less volatile.
