IEA jekker ned utsiktene igjen

The International Energy Agency (IEA), an organization that provides advice to member countries on energy matters under the Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), has updated its forecast in a recent report. It anticipates a global decrease in oil consumption by 2.6 million barrels per day this year, which is a more significant drop than previously estimated in its previous monthly oil market report from September.

The IEA has also revised its consumption projections for 2027, now predicting that global oil consumption will fall below the 2025 level in both 2026 and 2027. The decline in Middle Eastern oil supplies, as well as threats to regional energy infrastructure and tanker traffic, could further slow this trend, according to the IEA. The organization notes that high oil prices and weakened economic outlooks in some countries are dampening consumption.
