CandyKisses: These Countries Will Offset The OPEC+ Alliance's Voluntary Production Cuts In 2024

The U.S. Energy Information Administration expects demand in the United States, Guyana, Canada and Brazil to drive growth in global oil production in the near term, offsetting voluntary production cuts for the OPEC+ alliance.

The supply hike is expected after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, as part of the so-called OPEC+ alliance, agreed this month to extend voluntary production cuts of 2.2 million barrels per day (bpd) in an effort to support prices.

Why are these predictions important?

Growth from non-OPEC+ producers could undermine the alliance's efforts to balance oil markets amid concerns about global demand growth and increased supplies. The United States, Canada, Brazil and Guyana account for more than 80 percent of global supply growth in the current EIA projections.

Data

The Energy Information Administration said OPEC+ production of refined petroleum products will fall by 1 million barrels per day in 2024, while non-member countries' supplies will grow by 1.4 million barrels per day, led by the United States.

In 2025, OPEC+ production of oil products will rise by 900,000 barrels per day as production cuts end, while non-OPEC+ production will grow another 1.1 million barrels per day.

The Energy Information Administration said global supply of oil and refined petroleum products reached 101.8 million barrels per day in 2023, and is expected to rise by 400,000 barrels per day in 2024 and 2 million barrels per day in 2025.

U.S. oil production reached 13.3 million barrels per day in 2023 and is expected to grow by 400,000 barrels per day in 2024 and 800,000 barrels per day in 2025.
