The main reason for the decline in oil prices this week was the easing of tensions in the Red Sea, which has reduced supply disruptions. Some shipping lines have begun to resume operations in the region after the US launched a multinational military operation to stop Houthi attacks and ensure the safety of commercial shipping.

In addition, stable oil supply from Russia, the world's third largest producer after the US and Saudi Arabia, also contributed to pushing oil prices down.

Meanwhile, oil demand has yet to show signs of improvement. International organizations have not been very optimistic about global oil demand, at least in the first half of this year.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) expects global oil demand to increase by 2.2 million barrels per day in 2024, to 104.4 million barrels per day.
