Investors will be monitoring a meeting of eight members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies on September 7.
Analysts said they believed the group would not unwind the remaining voluntary cuts in place from the eight members, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, which were supporting the market and keeping prices in the $60 a barrel range.
OPEC+ might wait for more data after the conclusion of the U.S. summer driving season before it makes its next move, independent analyst Gaurav Sharma said, given an expected supply surplus in the last quarter of the year.
Saudi Aramco and Iraq's state oil company SOMO have stopped selling crude oil to India's Nayara Energy in the aftermath of sanctions imposed in July by the European Union on the Russian-backed refiner, three sources familiar with the matter said.
"The market is starting to wonder how that will impact flows. There is some concern about availability in the non-sanctioned pool of oil which may be becoming more dear supply-wise, as there is going to be less opportunity to buy these grey market barrels if sanctions ratchet up," said John Kilduff, a partner at Again Capital.
Bond-market jitters served to send stocks down Tuesday on the first trading day of September, though equities finished off of session lows. A raft of economic data culminating with Friday's August jobs report are likely to set the tone for the week.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell around 250 points, or 0.5%, to close near 45,296, after dropping nearly 600 points at its session low.
The S&P 500 lost around 44 points, or 0.7%, to end near 6,415.54.
The Nasdaq Composite dropped around 176 points, or 0.8%, to finish near 21,280.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose 4.9 basis points to finish trading Tuesday at 4.276%, while the 30-year T-bond yield was up 5.3 basis points at 4.97%. Yields move opposite to debt prices, with the increase coming amid a global rise in long-term yields tied to fiscal worries in the U.K. and France. A heavy calendar of corporate-debt issuance also contributed to weakness in Treasurys.
An appeals-court ruling on Friday that found President Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs illegal also stirred concerns in the Treasury market about the fate of duty revenues. Trump said he would seek an emergency hearing before the Supreme Court.
The Alaska LNG project is once again in the spotlight after decades of stalled attempts to commercialize North Slope gas. Glenfarne Group assumed control of the project earlier this year, restructuring it into phased development to make costs more manageable and attract international buyers. The centerpiece is an 807-mile, 42-inch pipeline designed to move 3.3 Bcf/d of natural gas through some of the harshest terrain in North America. Estimated project costs range from $38 billion to $44 billion, driven higher by the need for a $10 billion processing plant to treat sour gas and remove CO₂.
Supporters emphasize Alaska’s geographic advantage: LNG cargoes from the Gulf Coast take months to reach Asia, while Alaska shipments can arrive in weeks, translating into billions in potential savings. Glenfarne points to signed supply agreements, including a 20-year deal with Thailand for 2 million tonnes per annum (mtpa), as proof of momentum. Roughly half of planned production is already reserved.
Still, skepticism persists. Analysts argue that the per-ton capital cost is nearly double that of Gulf Coast projects, and some suggest that political considerations, rather than pure economics, are driving early commitments. Despite these doubts, developers maintain that phased construction, early pipeline revenues, and Asia’s proximity could finally make Alaska LNG commercially viable.
