Opec Sees Resilience in US Oil Production

摘要

Opec has revised its forecast for US oil production growth in 2015 lower but only modestly, possibly suggesting the producer group believes US tight oil output may not be as sensitive to low oil prices as previously thought. In its latest Monthly Oil Market Report (MOMR), published Thursday, Opec projects that non-Opec supply will grow 1.28 million barrels per day in 2015, down just 88,000 b/d from its forecast a month earlier, and points to a rising surplus of global oil supplies this year even as prices falter.
