Thematic: Oil- High oil prices to persist
According to IEA, close to 3m b/d of Russian production could be offline due to the international sanctions. In this regard, we note that the oil supply gap is widening and unlikely to be fulfilled by third party countries, given Russia supplies c.10% of the world oil together with some world oil producers is near their maximum cap spare capacity. In the wake of the disruptions, we reckon the already multi-year low global oil inventories is set to prolong, exerting further upward pressure on global oil prices going forward. With elevated oil price, it is not far-fetched to imagine that the upstream oil & gas companies, may be incentivized to expand their capacities to capitalize on the lucrative oil revenues. We reiterate an Overweight call in the Oil and Gas sector, with Brent oil expecting to average at USD85-90 for 2022.
