OEF Rapid Review
According to Ian Taylor, the head of oil trader Vitol, U.S. oil output could have a spike in 2018 before growth flattens for a number of years. Vitol expects U.S. output to climb by 0.5-0.6 million barrels per day next year but the increase would cause cost inflation and make some production loss-making. The anticipated slowdown in U.S. output combined with robust growth in global demand for oil should push prices above the current range of $50-60 per barrel, Taylor said. Vitol has sold most of its oil in storage as it believes the market is tightening.
