NYMEX Overview: Oil Slumps on Supply Concerns Following OPEC Report -- OPIS

Dow Jones
Nov 13

Oil futures tumbled midday after OPEC and allied producers signaled that global supply could match demand by 2026, a shift from earlier deficit projections.

As of 11:40 a.m. ET, NYMEX crude oil benchmarks hovered near three-week lows.

The December West Texas Intermediate contract was down $2.50 at $58.54/bbl, while the January WTI contract sank $2.46 to $58.53/bbl.

The ICE January Brent contract slid $2.49 to $62.67/bbl, while February Brent fell $2.43 to $62.44/bbl.

Refined product futures also slid sharply. The NYMEX December ULSD contract retreated 9.64cts to $2.4793/gal, and January ULSD slipped 8.89cts to $2.4369/gal.

The December RBOB contract declined 5.18cts to $1.9602/gal, while January futures were down 5.31cts at $1.8936/gal.

The selloff reflected concerns over near-term oversupply, as OPEC+ raised forecasts for non-OPEC+ production, pointing to rising global inventories. The pullback, which followed a three-session rally, came even as the International

Energy Agency forecasted oil demand growing well into 2050.
