Lower oil prices weigh on power sector projects | GulfNews.com

Lower oil prices weigh on power sector projects | GulfNews.com:

"While the Middle East still has one of the lowest break-even prices for crude oil, falling oil prices will put pressure on fiscal budgets and could result in a knock-on effect as governments reduce spending on certain projects.

According to Shaheen Chohan, vice-president of global analytics at Industrial Info Resources, a US-based provider of market intelligence, oil prices could trade around the $60 (Dh220.38) a barrel mark over the next 12-18 months.

Such a drop in prices presents challenges for power companies to manage planned projects, finance growth and bring a new generation of projects in time and on budget."
