Report summary
The oil market weakened in August and early September due largely to a continued focus on potential weak demand in China. With prices falling into the low to mid $70s/bbl area for Dated Brent, on 5 September 2024 OPEC+ agreed to delay the easing in production cuts to 1 December 2024. In view of the recent weakness in prices, we have adjusted our base case in this monthly update to assume that OPEC+ delays the start of easing production cuts until Q2 2025, when output will begin returning to the market and continue to do so through the end of 2025.
