Goldman Sachs Forecasts Bullish Oil Market in 2021

Armed with the optimism of a successful COVID-19 vaccine by next year, Goldman Sachs has revised its forecast for the crude oil market, opting for a more bullish view for 2021.

According to analysts at Goldman Sachs, the oil market is expected to rebound as early as 2021, coinciding with the increasing likelihood of the availability of a coronavirus vaccine. The US bank predicts that international benchmark Brent will rise from $45 per barrel to $65 per barrel by the end of the end of the third quarter in 2021, before remaining steady at approximately $58 per barrel by the end of the year. Goldman Sachs also updated its forecast of $51.38 per barrel for West Texas Intermediate to $55.88 per barrel by the end of next year.

The analysts are also predicting that the global demand for oil will increase by 3.7 million barrels per day between January and August of 2021. However, irrespective of OPEC, the economic recovery for oil production will remain relatively subdued next year, especially for the US shale industry.

To date, OPEC members have agreed to maintain production cuts of 7.7 million barrels per day until the end of August due to impacts of continued limited demand. According to Reuters, compliance with the production cuts was relatively high at approximately 97% throughout the month of July.
