Why Are The Oil Prices Falling?
The oil prices fell by a sharp rate of 13% after a long three week rise. It was the biggest weekly drop in over two years, followed by the modest gains in June. The impact of the rise will be felt in UAE petrol and diesel prices for July 2025.
The key reason for the fall was the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran mediated by the US President. The halting of violence calmed the fears of supply disruption from one of the biggest exporters of oil worldwide, accounting alone for almost one third of global oil supplies. As the tension fell, markets settled down and oil prices relaxed.
Brent crude went down to about $67 per barrel and U.S. oil (WTI) fell near $65. The cost drop highlighted the lower risk and market’s sentiments shifting. In addition, the hedge funds began heavy bets against the oil, increasing short positions and reducing the prices further. Another speculation noted is that OPEC+ (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries), may raise their oil production by 411,000 barrels a day consecutively for four months in August. However if the demand does not match the increase, the prices are expected to fall further.
MUFG mentioned that near-term price support might persist due to tight inventories and seasonal demand. Although easing geopolitical risks and demand uncertainties could temper further gains.
Similarly, the prices spiked up in 2008 due to the Middle East crisis, and were followed by the worldwide economic regression. However, speculations are that the hike in UAE petrol and diesel prices for July 2025 will not follow a similar fate.
