OPEC+ Oil Cuts Project A Supply Squeeze and Economic Headwinds, Analysts Warn

  • The IEA warns that OPEC+'s surprise supply cuts could worsen existing oil deficits and slow economic recovery.
  • Higher oil prices may force consumers to spend more on necessities, leaving less for economic activity.
  • Russia's March oil exports reached pre-pandemic highs despite import bans, demonstrating the limits of sanctions.
  • Stagnant growth in OECD countries contrasts with China's increasing oil demand, creating an imbalanced market.
  • The supply cuts will reduce global oil supply by 400,000 barrels per day by year's end, according to the IEA.
