OPEC+ and Global Oil Markets: What to Expect This Winter?

OPEC+ has not only fully returned to market the 2.2 million barrels per day of nominal voluntary supply cuts made in November 2023, it has also committed to a first monthly return of 1.65 million barrels per day announced before then. The market has been absorbing the higher supply with a few bearish impacts. This has been for two essential reasons: 1. refinery margins are robust and crude stocks are relatively low globally; and 2. summer oil burn for power generation in the Middle East is more than one million barrels per day above Spring levels. But, the summer power generation season will be over after September, as global refinery demand for crude also falls during Autumn season. How will the market move? How might OPEC+ members respond?
