Energy Sector Commentary for Friday
The energy sector is off to a...
The energy sector is off to a mixed-to-higher start, supported by strength in the crude complex, but pressured by modest losses in the major equity futures. The broader market futures retreated this morning after July’s PPI print came in hotter than expected. The producer price index, rose more than expected last month, advancing 0.3%. Economists polled by Dow Jones expected an increase of 0.2%.

WTI and Brent crude oil futures are higher this morning and are set to post gains for their seventh-consecutive week, following optimistic demand forecasts from OPEC+ and the IEA which overshadowed demand concerns from China. Last night, OPEC+ said it expects global oil demand to rise by 2.25 million bpd in 2024, as the firm anticipates China’s economic growth will boost oil consumption. This morning, the IEA warned global inventories could decrease further throughout the end of 2023, which would add to the tailwinds fueling oil’s recent rally.

Natural gas futures have erased earlier gains and are now lower on a larger-than-expected storage build. The EIA weekly storage report (week ended 4-Aug) showed a build of +29 Bcf vs consensus +24 Bcf and vs 5-yr average of +46 Bcf.

Oil prices could rise further this year, but 2024 demand to slow sharply: IEA
LONDON (Reuters) -OPEC+ supply cuts could erode...
LONDON (Reuters) -OPEC+ supply cuts could erode oil inventories in the rest of this year, potentially driving prices even higher, before economic headwinds limit global demand growth in 2024, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Friday.

Tighter supply driven by oil output cuts from OPEC and its allies, together known as OPEC+, and rising global demand have underpinned a rally in oil prices, with Brent crude hitting highs of over $88 a barrel on Thursday, the highest since January.

The IEA said if OPEC+ current targets are maintained, oil inventories could draw by 2.2 million barrels per day (bpd) in the third quarter and 1.2 million bpd in the fourth, "with a risk of driving prices still higher".
