Global oil glut to worsen as deal to cut production unlikely, says IEA | The National

Global oil glut to worsen as deal to cut production unlikely, says IEA | The National:

"The world will store unwanted oil for most of 2016 as declines in US output take time and Opec is unlikely to cut a deal with other producers to reduce ballooning output, the International Energy Agency said.

The agency, which coordinates energy policies of industrialised countries, said that while it did not believe oil prices could follow some of the most extreme forecasts and fall to as low as US$10 per barrel, it was equally hard to see how they could rise significantly from current levels.

The Paris-based IEA trimmed its forecast for 2016 oil demand growth, which now stands at 1.17 million barrels per day (bpd) following a five-year high of 1.6 million in 2015."
