OIL

Geopolitics will be key for oil markets in 2025 according to JBC Energy Group Chairman Johannes Benigni speaking with CNBC. 

  • “The world economy has not been doing great but still we had 1.6mn bpd oil demand growth this year and for 2025 we are looking at 1.4mn bpd demand growth,” Benigni said.
  • “That doesn’t look like demand is bad and ailing, despite the energy transition, demand is robust,” he added.
  • “The geopolitical aspect is going to take over much more,” pointing towards Trump as a key factor.
  • “There is a little more room on the upside for U.S. oil production and a lot more for gas” Bengini said.
