Tishwash:  Expect Brent to return to $110 by mid-2023

Morgan Stanley expected, on Wednesday, a rise in Brent crude prices to about $110 a barrel by mid-2023, indicating that prices are receiving support from high demand and the continued scarcity of crude supply.

The investment bank said in a note: “We still expect an increase in oil prices, supported by the recovery in demand after China eased Corona restrictions, and the recovery of the aviation sector amid a lack of supply due to low levels of investment and the risks facing Russian supplies, the end of withdrawals from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and the slowdown in US shale oil production.” .

Oil prices rose today, Wednesday, after both the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the International Energy Agency expected a recovery in demand over the next year, according to Reuters.

The bank said that macroeconomic headwinds will push the market into a slight oversupply and are likely to keep prices somewhat range-bound through the first quarter.

But Martin Rats, an oil analyst at Morgan Stanley, expects the market to return to balance in the second quarter and to witness greater scarcity in the second half of 2023.

For US gas, the Bank expects that new supply will exceed demand next year, leading to a lower balance and posing negative risks to post-winter prices.   link
