Core Viewpoint - The International Energy Agency's February report indicates a significant decline in global oil supply due to geopolitical tensions, extreme weather, and reduced exports from Kazakhstan, Russia, and Venezuela, leading to a rise in oil prices, with Brent crude surpassing $70 per barrel for the first time since September 2025 [1][2]. Group 1: Oil Supply and Price Dynamics - In January, global oil supply decreased by 1.2 million barrels per day (bpd) to 106.6 million bpd, influenced by geopolitical tensions and extreme weather conditions [1]. - Russian oil supply fell by 350,000 bpd in January, with Indian imports dropping to 1.1 million bpd, the lowest since November 2022 [2]. - Venezuela's oil production decreased by 210,000 bpd to 780,000 bpd, but is expected to rebound following U.S. authorization for exports [2]. Group 2: Refining and Inventory Trends - Global refinery crude processing dropped from a record 86.3 million bpd in December to 85.7 million bpd in January due to seasonal maintenance and declining refining margins [3]. - Global oil inventories increased by 37 million barrels in December, reaching a total of 477 million barrels, with OECD inventories also rising above the five-year average for the first time since 2021 [3]. Group 3: Future Projections - The report forecasts a strong rebound in global oil supply in 2026, with an expected increase of 2.4 million bpd, reaching 108.6 million bpd, driven equally by OPEC and non-OPEC producers [4]. - Global oil demand growth is projected at 850,000 bpd for 2026, with non-OECD economies contributing the entire increase, and petrochemical feedstock expected to account for over 50% of this demand growth [4][5]. - Despite a slight downward adjustment in demand growth expectations due to economic uncertainties, China remains the largest contributor with an annual increase of approximately 200,000 bpd [5].
