The protracted conflict between the US and Iran continues to affect the global energy market, and market participants expect oil prices to remain high for a long time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is stated<\/a> in a Bloomberg Intelligence survey.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most respondents predict that the average price of Brent crude oil over the next 12 months will be between $81-100 per barrel.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Almost two-thirds of market participants also expect an additional “risk premium” of $5-15 per barrel to remain due to geopolitical instability.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Bloomberg Intelligence analysts note that the market does not yet predict a complete collapse of the current pricing model, but considers the current instability to be long-term.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One of the key risk factors remains the Strait of Hormuz – one of the world’s main oil supply routes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Due to the threat of attacks and restrictions on shipping, global energy supplies have been significantly reduced, and the market has faced the risk of a new wave of inflation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to market participants, possible disruptions could lead to a loss of 3 to 7 million barrels of oil per day.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Some experts also believe that flows through the Strait of Hormuz will remain below normal for a long time to come.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At the same time, traders are increasingly turning to risk insurance strategies and reducing bets on further rapid price growth.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Separately, further increases in shale oil production are forecast in the United States. According to estimates by the US Energy Information Administration, production in the country could increase to a record 14.1 million barrels per day in 2027.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that the US and Iran may soon agree on a basic agreement<\/a> that should stop tensions in the region and pave the way for full-fledged negotiations on the nuclear program.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Recall, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the completion of the military operation against Iran called Epic Fury, which had been ongoing since February.<\/a> <\/p>\n
