Oversupply, faltering growth to weigh on oil prices in 2019: Reuters poll | Reuters

Oversupply, faltering growth to weigh on oil prices in 2019: Reuters poll | Reuters:

Crude oil prices look likely to trade below $70 per barrel in 2019 as surplus production, much of it from the United States, and slowing economic growth undermine OPEC-led efforts to shore up the market, a Reuters poll showed on Monday.

A survey of 32 economists and analysts forecasts the North Sea Brent crude oil benchmark LCOc1 will average $69.13 per barrel in 2019, more than $5 lower than last month’s projection.

Brent has averaged $71.76 in 2018.
