  OPEC+ shrugs off US pressure to announce 400,000 b/d output boost

  • 04 noviembre 2021

  Speaking after today’s OPEC+ meeting, Ann-Louise Hittle, vice president, Macro Oils, at Wood Mackenzie, said: “After unusual pressure from the US administration to lift its production, OPEC+ announced it is boosting output by 400,000 barrels per day (b/d) for December, in line with its 18 July 2021 agreement. This will be seen as disappointing by the US, which is asking for an extra increase closer to 600,000 b/d. But as long as OPEC+ actually boosts its output by 400,000 b/d, the US has indicated it will accept the outcome."

  Action to achieve Paris climate goals will upend oil and gas prices

  • 15 abril 2021

  If the world acts decisively to limit global warming to 2°C by 2050, the scale of change will revolutionise the energy industry. Progressive electrification will squeeze the most polluting hydrocarbons out of the energy mix, nearly eliminating their markets. Oil demand will shrink, and with it, so will the power of major oil producers. Gas demand will remain resilient, but business models will need to evolve.

  • 24 junio 2021

  Achieving the 2°C goal of the Paris Agreement will require more than simply avoiding carbon. To cap global warming at 1.5°C or even 2°C, carbon removal will be essential. Research from global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK), shows the key to effective large-scale carbon removal is unlocking potential economies of scale through basin-wide carbon capture and storage (CCS), effectively providing a community answer to a global problem.
