Abstract

Disagreements between oil producers and consumers for keeping a stable market has resulted in actions from both sides, elevating concerns about the near future stability of the oil sector. On one side, producers have concerns about future demand uncertainties, while consumers look for more affordable oil prices. Some consider easing sanctions in Venezuela and Iran could help the consumers’ goal. However, easing sanctions on these two countries will have a limited impact on the market.
