Key Takeaways:

Powered by lumidawealth.com

  • The International Energy Agency (IEA) has reduced its global oil demand growth forecast for 2025 to 726,000 barrels per day (bpd), down from 1.03 million bpd, citing the economic impact of U.S. tariffs and trade tensions.
  • Global GDP growth assumptions were revised downward to 2.4% for 2025 and 2.5% for 2026, from 3.1% previously, reflecting the economic strain of escalating trade disputes.
  • Oil supply is expected to exceed demand, with global production projected to rise by 1.2 million bpd in 2025, creating a supply overhang and further pressuring prices.
  • Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) benchmarks have fallen to their lowest levels in over four years, trading at $65 and $62 per barrel, respectively.

What Happened?

The IEA has revised its oil demand growth forecast downward, citing the economic fallout from U.S. President Trump’s tariffs and the resulting global trade tensions. The agency now expects global oil demand to grow by 726,000 bpd in 2025, significantly lower than its previous estimate of 1.03 million bpd.

The IEA also cut its global GDP growth assumptions to 2.4% for 2025 and 2.5% for 2026, down from 3.1%, as fears of a global recession mount. The ongoing trade disputes and countermeasures have created significant uncertainty, with the IEA warning of a “bumpy ride” for oil markets in the near term.

On the supply side, global production is expected to rise by 1.2 million bpd in 2025, outpacing demand growth and creating a supply surplus. OPEC+ has announced plans to increase production by 411,000 bpd next month, though the IEA expects the actual increase to be closer to 225,000 bpd due to compliance issues and lower demand.


Why It Matters?

The IEA’s revised forecast highlights the significant impact of U.S. trade policies on global economic growth and energy markets. The reduced demand growth, coupled with rising supply, is likely to keep oil prices under pressure, posing challenges for oil-exporting nations and energy companies.

The ongoing trade tensions have also disrupted global supply chains, with sanctions on countries like Venezuela and Iran further complicating the supply outlook. While OPEC+ has begun unwinding production cuts, the group may need to reassess its policies if demand continues to weaken.

The lower oil prices could provide some relief to consumers and businesses, but they also raise concerns about the financial stability of oil-dependent economies and the profitability of energy producers.


What’s Next?

The IEA will continue to monitor the impact of U.S. tariffs and trade negotiations on global economic growth and oil demand. OPEC+ is likely to face increasing pressure to adjust its production policies to avoid exacerbating the supply surplus.

Investors and policymakers will closely watch oil price movements and production data in the coming months, as well as the unfolding impact of sanctions on key oil-producing nations like Venezuela, Iran, and Russia.

The broader energy market will also need to adapt to the shifting dynamics, with renewable energy and alternative fuels potentially gaining traction as oil demand growth slows.
