Oil Market Daily reports crude started the week near $100 a barrel as Gulf Cooperation Council diplomats plan talks with Iran in Oman on Monday over a temporary shipping arrangement for the Strait of Hormuz.
The IEA now projects global oil demand will fall by 2.5 million barrels a day in 2026, while the EIA lifted its second-half 2026 Brent forecast by $8 to about $90 and sees prices averaging $77 by the second quarter of 2027 as shut-in Gulf production restarts. Global output fell 1.6 million barrels a day in August to 100.1 million, with more than 10 million barrels a day of Gulf capacity offline and inventories down 507 million barrels since the war began.
Refined products are tighter than crude: refinery runs in August were 81.4 million barrels a day, 4.2 million below a year earlier, pushing Atlantic Basin margins to records and tanker earnings to extremes. Valero, Marathon Petroleum, Phillips 66, Frontline and Equinor disclosures illustrate the squeeze in refining and shipping that is amplifying price moves.
