International oil prices will continue to fluctuate in the short term
In the price adjustment cycle, affected by the decline in demand and expectations of supply growth, international oil prices rose first and then fell, and the overall level was lower than the previous price adjustment cycle. First, the U.S. tariffs have caused market concerns about the decline in global economy and crude oil demand; second, according to data from Baker Hughes Energy Services, the number of oil and natural gas rigs in the United States has risen for three consecutive weeks, rising to 588 in the week ending February 14, which means that production will continue to grow in the later period. But on the other hand, the United States imposed sanctions on Russia, stated that it would suppress Iran's crude oil exports, as well as the attack on the Caspian oil pipeline and the heavy rains of Russian Black Sea ports, etc., which provided certain support for oil prices.
The National Development and Reform Commission Price Monitoring Center predicts that there is still great uncertainty in the international trade environment and geopolitical situation, which will have a great impact on crude oil supply and demand and market expectations. International oil prices will continue to fluctuate in the short term.
