Report summary
This insight includes the key charts and conclusions from our most recent global breakeven analysis, which was updated in line with the Global Oil Supply 10-year investment horizon outlook in October 2022. Breakeven costs are assigned to every element of our global liquids supply view allowing a detailed, comprehensive view of the global cost of supply. This analysis is a crucial part of our long-term oil price forecast.
Table of contents
- Key OPEC countries contribute the cheapest sources of supply, dominating the lower end of the global oil cost curve
- Supply from the US Lower 48, Canada and non-OPEC sits on the higher end of the cost curve
- Shallow water supply is mainly low cost, however, deepwater and US Lower 48 onshore rely on higher cost supply to maintain production
- Pre-FID projects globally and future drilling in the US Lower 48 will contribute 15 million b/d of supply over the next 10 years
- Additional future sources of supply add a further 14 million b/d over the next 10 years; with 8 million b/d breaking even below $40/bbl
