Brent oil likely to stay around $45 per barrel next year – Moody's
|According to ETEnergyWorld, rating agency Moody's foresees uneven demand recovery to keep Brent oil near $45 per barrel next year – that is the lower end of its medium-term price forecast of $45 to $65.
"Modest improvement in 2021 oil prices will not lead producers to boost capital investment, while fuel demand will rise but not to pre-downturn levels," the rating agency said in a report.
Fitch ratings also expect Brent to trade around $45 next year. At the time of writing, Brent is trading near $50.25 per barrel, representing a 23% decline on a year-to-date basis.
