*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
The global oil demand recovery, which accelerated in Q4 2021, is facing strong headwinds this year amid a combination of high fuel prices, lingering Covid-19 restrictions in China, and economic sanctions on Russia. Tightness in the global refined products markets has led to high fuel prices that are occurring in the background of record-level broad price inflation. In this insight, we address the following topics: • Effect of high prices on Wood Mackenzie’s demand outlook for 2022 and 2023 • The countries/sectors where price-led demand erosion is occurring • Our summer driving season outlook for US and Europe • The role of subsidies/tax cuts in mitigating consumer price impacts
