Triple-digit oil prices will impact global economy

EIR focuses on the risks triple digit oil prices bring and the likelihood high oil prices are here to stay

byEnverus

CALGARY, Alberta (Oct. 4, 2023) — Enverus Intelligence Research (EIR), a subsidiary of Enverus, the most trusted energy-dedicated SaaS platform, has released its latest FundamentalEdge report, which focuses on global drivers for oil and gas prices through 2030, the five-year oil and gas supply and demand outlook, and price forecasts.

Oil prices appear destined to hit $100/bbl, bringing risks to the global economy, says EIR in the report. Meanwhile, winter average Henry hub prices seem locked in a $3.00-3.50/MMbtu trading-range — subject to Mother Nature’s desires.

“Despite not hitting our $100/bbl target yet, the rally in Brent has largely fulfilled the bullish price expectations we’ve held since 4Q22,” said Al Salazar, report author and director at EIR. “Enverus Intelligence Research expects NYMEX gas prices to increase about $0.50/MMBtu into the winter, maintaining a range of $3-$3.50/MMBtu.”

Key takeaways:

  • Expectations for a mild winter in North America, along with our forecast for a strong year-end storage level and healthy European inventories, leaves little bullish hope for Henry to breakout of our predicted gas price range.
  • EIR expects L48 crude production won’t ramp into the increased oil prices as producers adhere to investor preference for capital discipline.

Members of the media should contact Jon Haubert to schedule an interview with one of Enverus’ expert analysts.
