Price expectations

According to the deputy head of the department government regulation of the economy of the Institute of public Administration and management RANHiGS Ivan Kapitonov, quotes on oil to a greater extent depend on the exchange of players, and not from the real indicators of production and demand.

“The oil stopped being so profitable asset to it do millions, but volatility still allows traders to earn well. Therefore, the oil price will fluctuate greatly, especially since stocks that had accumulated 30 or less per barrel, has not sold out. When the price exceeds the psychological threshold of $ 50 per barrel, begin to throw off the stocks, and the price will be pressured down, “- said the expert

Experts predict that in the near future the price corridor will be 45-52 dollars per barrel.. The period of volatility will continue for as long as traders do not find other volatile assets that the market is there.

“The main thing is that the price is hovering around $ 30-40, this is the hand of the Russian Federation budget. In the future, we see the volatility of around $ 60, but this will only happen in the middle of next year “, – predicts Kapitonov

in turn, the general director of the national energy Institute Sergei Pravosudov difficult to predict the price.. “Oil quotes difficult to forecast, this is largely guesswork. Traders by independent reasoning or collusion pay attention to some factors and decide what oil should increase, or vice versa, to fall. To say that it would be in the mind of traders, it is difficult” – it sure

according to the analyst “Veles Capital” Basil Tanurkova, for the rise in prices in recent days, there were two prerequisites

“first, yesterday the data released in the US stocks.. that suddenly were better than expected, reduced inventories of gasoline and distillate petroleum products. Secondly, the evening was published in July minutes of the meeting of the Federal reserve system (FRS), on the basis of which investors have concluded that the probability of a rate hike in the near future is not very high, which led to a decrease in the dollar and supported the quotations of oil, “- he said

According to Tanurkova, the growth of quotations of oil in recent years is largely due to currency factors.. “The dollar weakened sufficiently strongly to many emerging currencies after Brexit and against the background of a good situation in the Chinese economy”, – he said

At the same time, the expert noted that the fundamental prerequisites for the price of oil is also positive.. For example, the International Energy Agency and OPEC positively assess the demand for the current year. At the same time, OPEC expects that in 2017 the market of oil shortage will be about 600 thousand barrels per day on average in the year. Despite the fact that the view of the level of production in 2017 was divided (International Energy Agency believes that the production of non-OPEC countries will increase, OPEC, on the contrary, predicts a fall), the overall expectations for the price positive.

“The Earlier this year I had a conservative forecast of 55 dollars per barrel at the end of the year, an optimistic – $ 60 I still hold this view likelihood of achieving shortage of oil on the market is quite high, “-.. concluded Tanurcov

on. assessment IEA analysts, global demand for oil in 2016 will amount to 96.3 million barrels per day (an increase of 1.4 million barrels per day compared to 2015). It is expected that world oil demand in 2017 will amount to 97.5 million barrels per day. The IEA expects oil production in countries outside OPEC will decline by 0.9 million barrels per day in 2016, and in 2017 -. Will grow by 0.3 million barrels per day

According to OPEC, oil supplies from countries outside of OPEC, decline on the basis of 2016 0.79 million barrels per day – up to 56.13 million barrels. In 2017, as forecast, OPEC analysts, the index will continue to decline and reach 55.97 million barrels per day.
