IEA expects decline in global oil supply in 2026

Daily global oil supply decreased by 10.1 million barrels in March of this year to 97 million barrels, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said, APA-Economics reports.

According to the information, this was due to ongoing attacks on energy infrastructure in the Middle East and the continued restrictions on tanker movement through the Strait of Hormuz.

It was reported that in March, daily production in OPEC+ countries decreased by 9.4 million barrels month-on-month to 42.4 million barrels. In non-OPEC countries, supply decreased by 770,000 barrels compared to the previous month, amounting to 54.7 million barrels.

It was noted that the IEA reduced its forecast for daily global oil supply in 2026 by 2.5 million barrels compared to the previous report. Thus, in 2026, this indicator is expected to decrease by 1.5 million barrels globally to 104.7 million barrels.

Recall that OPEC+ is an initiative covering OPEC and non-OPEC countries aimed at reducing oil production (to balance the market – ed.). Azerbaijan is also a participant in the OPEC+ agreement.
