WHAT HAPPENED

The International Energy Agency forecasts average global oil supply of 100.7 million barrels per day in 2026, down 5.7 million barrels per day year on year. The headline provides no explanation for the projected decline.

SO WHAT?

A supply reduction of this scale could create substantial global energy-price and inflation risks.
